Importance of Self-Love
Years ago, a wise mentor shared these words with me: "You cannot take anything in life personally, how others perceive you is a projection of how they perceive themselves". Once I began digesting these words, my life and interactions with others began to change. Not only did I begin to live more carefree, detached from internalizing the unnecessary unpleasantries of others, but I also began cuing in more and more to how my own energy in interpersonal interactions noticeably shifted with fluctuations in my personal life. It became more and more clear to me, that how we treat others is how we treat ourselves. There is an understated NEED for more SELF LOVE on this planet right now. We must save ourselves before we can even attempt to save the world. The only issue being...how do we begin this process? It is a bit odd we are not formally taught the fundamentals of what I consider the most important relationship you can have- your relationship with yourself. I will share with you my struggles, successes, and strategies for bonding with myself. As time and time again, I am relearning: I channel the best love when my own cup is overflowing before I invite others to drink.
