That's allowed the natural love for ourselves to be expressed.
It is important to have genuine connection with others so that we can get the things we want and help others.
But it is equally important to connect with yourself.
And love can reveal its beauty in all ways throughout each day.
Let's take the very first action in self-love right now.
Utilizing our ability to breathe at will in all kinds of ways.
Our breath has been there literally our entire lives.
Changing as needed to the demand of exciting circumstances and flowing effortlessly when we are resting.
Taking multiple full and deep breath every day is proven to change our bodies and minds for the better.
So that's taking five full and deep breath with me,
Holding it for a moment at the top and naturally exhaling,
Never pushing out your breath all the way.
One,
Inhale nice,
A big breath,
Expanding your belly and lungs as much as you can.
Hold it and exhale gently with relief.
Two,
Inhaling fresh oxygen that will be supplying to your bloodstream,
Holding it to soak it in and exhaling without an effort.
Three,
Inhale feeling rejuvenated and invigorated by this breathing.
Hold it and exhale easily.
Four,
Inhale noticing how breathing fully comes naturally for you,
Posing to soak it in and exhale any tensions or worries.
And last one,
Five,
Inhaling fully is an act of self-love,
Pausing to feel this love and exhale into completely relaxation.
Just allow your breath to flow at a pace without any effort from you right now.
By doing this,
You are proven you are capable of self-love.
Deep breathing increases the oxygen supply to your brain and it stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system.
Sometimes it's referred to as the rest and digest system.
By breathing deeply and often,
You are commanding your body to rest,
Which relaxes and rejuvenate you.
This is self-love in its simplest forms that anyone can do at any time of the day.
Now let's honor ourselves by relaxing the mind even further.
Notice now how your thoughts are arising from your mind,
One after another.
See them come and see them go.
Some thoughts linger for some time and some thoughts only come for a split second.
If you can really focus,
You will notice even smaller thoughts such as describing the world around you or labeling the things in your surroundings.
Let your hearing become super alert right now and try to focus on some sounds around you.
Maybe you can hear the sound of your breath.
Can you hear the nature nearby?
Or perhaps cars passing by?
Or people talking with each other?
Just go from sound to sound,
Focusing on only one at a time.
Now stop focusing on any sound in particular and just allow all the noises around you to come in equally.
And when you hear them,
They almost act as tiny waves of relaxation,
Calming your mind.
Now if you could stretch your senses even further,
And perhaps you can become aware of the silence that is in between the sound,
Or as I like to call it,
The canvas of the sound.
This is the invisible fabric that sound lays upon and travels along.
Just become aware of the silence in between the sound now.
Even have the unique ability to visualize which allows for creation of all kinds to take place.
So let's use the power of your amazing visualization ability to induce self-love.
Make sure your eyes are closed.
Begin to imagine yourself full of an abundance of self-love.
See yourself now choosing healthy food and cooking at home so you know all of the ingredients you are putting into your body.
Visibly seeing yourself eating well.
And when you are eating well,
See yourself enjoying these moments.
And you feel the nutrition that these choices bring you.
Imagine now you have a strong will to avoid junk foods and unhealthy drinks.
See yourself in great detail,
Confidently saying no to all these things.
You feel very proud now when you avoid eating something unhealthy.
Eating healthy is an essential component in self-love.
Visualize yourself now completely at peace.
You can imagine yourself in a place that you love and that makes you feel peaceful.
Perhaps the beach or in a forest or snuggle up in your own room.
Whatever brings you a feeling of comfort,
Vividly see yourself in this place right now and allow these feelings of peace and tranquility to rise in your body.
The more details you can add to this image,
The better.
See the colors brightly.
Feel the sensation of your surroundings.
Notice how you look here.
What kind of expression are on your face?
Be here in this place of complete peace for a few moments longer.
Another form of self-love is observing your mental chatter.
In order to have a great self-love,
You must expand the good things you feel about yourself and challenge any negative thoughts as soon as they arise.
So hear yourself saying,
When I fully love myself,
I am able to fully love others.
There is an amazing stillness that comes when I meditate.
Each day I allow my love for myself grow more and more.
I honor myself by allowing the peace to rise within me.
Deciding to love myself unconditionally,
No matter what happens,
Feels wonderful.
I get to know myself fully when I use mindfulness technique.
My self-esteem grows along with my self-love.
I love and accept everything about myself.
I find peace by using my imagination upon will.
Today I love myself even more than yesterday.
Truly loving myself brings me peace.
The more I love myself,
The better my entire health.
I love every moment of my existence.
Every part of me that makes me who I am is encompassed with love.
I have unconditional love within me that overflows in abundance to those around me.
Take a moment and enjoy this peaceful,
Loving kindness and emotions until you hear my voice again.
You You Now gently open your eyes Take a fresh bed and know that whenever you love yourself You will find love You
