Self Love Masterclass = Day 3

 Do you talk lovingly to yourself?

In this exercise we will cultivate self-love by talking to ourselves in the most loving way we can.

Aren’t we talking to ourselves all the time?

I do. Inside my head I say things like: ‘I lost my glasses, I'm so retarded.’ or ‘I should be better at this.’
Some days, I tell myself I'm fat. 

Let’s make these conversations with ourselves more loving!

Look in the mirror and state aloud to yourself: “I want to learn how to love you!”

CONGRATULATIONS!
You made the decision that you want to learn how to love yourself more.

Put a hand on your heart and find your own words to say to yourself something along the lines of: “I have decided I want to love you more than I have ever done before. I don’t know yet exactly how to do that, but I’m willing to learn. I want to make you feel loved, I want to make you feel happy. I care about you.”

The exact words don’t matter. What matters is getting the message across in a loving and genuine way. Keep sending that love! And just as couples like to tell other how much they love each other, it does not hurt to tell yourself multiple times a day that you want to love yourself even more.

Your heart will be happy to receive your loving messages time and time again.

There is no limit to the amount of “I love you’s”.

Get Creative!

Love can be expressed in an infinite amount of ways. Your heart will love it if you find more and more ways to express your love.

Do you know your love language? If not, I strongly urge you to take the quiz! If it's been a while since you have taken the quiz - take it again!

Here’s a list of loving things to say to yourself:
I challenge you to use them as inspiration to also find your own creative ways.

• I love you exactly as you are.
• You are beautiful.
• You are so sweet.
• I want to be as sweet to you as I can. 
• I love spending every minute of this life with you. 
• Thank you for every thing. 
• I forgive you for everything of the past, the present and the future.
• I forgive you. 
• My heart is open for you.
• You are the best.
• I am here for you. 
• Whatever happens, whoever you will become, whatever you will do, I love you.
• My love for you is unconditional.
• You are welcome.
• You are perfect the way you are. 
• I accept you.
• I will love you through every hardship 
• I am not afraid of you 
• Thank you for everything you carried me through.  

Make a commitment to tell yourself “I love you” as many times as needed for you to feel loved.

Take this moment to come up with a minimum of 3 other ways to express love to yourself. Put all your awareness in your heart and say those things to yourself. Allow yourself the time to really FEEL what it does for you.
Not think - but Feel - with your heart.
