Why is self love important?
Ohh!! I can’t run anymore.
I just realized this, she said with extreme grief on her face. What is happening with my body? She was totally unaware. Somehow I can just manage to barely walk like a toddler. One day that pain in her left leg, that she had been ignoring for a long time spread like water to the whole body. Now the movement of every joint, even muscle, becomes difficult.
Day by day the stiffness in her body started to get strengthened. Her tolerance capacity to bear that pain just busted and at that moment her family recognized it. It’s something serious with her.
Snigdha went through all the medical tests and at last, she got to know that she was suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. And it’s not 100% curable as per allopathic medication. Now she just notices how freely and effortlessly her friends and peer groups can run, walk and have body movement. But for snigdha, they are luckiest and very much blessed that they have disease-free bodies.
If she could have listened to that inner voice when she felt little pain in her knee. Then maybe she could be at a better stage today. I think this short story of Snigdha taught us a lot. It happens with us a lot of times that we take ourselves for granted. We just don’t care about our health( physical, mental and emotional) and in various aspects like not eating right, not eating at right time. Often become so caring for others but never for ourselves. THAT’S WRONG ISN’T IT?

How To Practice Self love?
● Morning Vibes.
How You Start your morning really matters. Most of us wake up and then suddenly recall what we went through a roller coaster ride of emotions last night whether it’s happy, lousy or negative etc. It’s the most wrong way to start your morning. Learn and replace it with a new habit when you wake up in the morning and greet a happy and great day to yourself.
● Health care.
In the morning how do you treat your health? Scrolling your social media apps. Wrong way again. Replace it.
How?
•Drink two glass lukewarm water. Medically proven that if a person is having lukewarm water in the morning routine their chances of being a cancer patient decreases to 90%.
•Do exercise /walk and for mental health practice meditation. It brings more calmness and poise into your life which is a good trait that you love yourself and do self love.
● Mirror talks.
Do one exercise right now while reading. Open your front camera and talk to yourself for just 2 minutes. Can you face yourself with no resistance? If yes, great and if not then you suffer and lack self love. Practice it and by then you will become more comfortable with the person you encounter while seeing in the mirror or in front of the camera.
● Smile.
When See yourself in the mirror, do you smile and feel lucky that you are just being yourself and still in love with yourself? This small gesture might look weird if you don’t do this but try once. Have a gaze towards yourself and appreciate yourself with a bright smile. Your smile is so infectious that it can change your whole mood and day. Try it and you are going to love it.
● Analyze your thoughts.
Are your thoughts kind, humble and respectful when you think of yourself? Or you become so vulnerable, compulsive, negative and biased about yourself. Both thoughts matter and impact each cell of the body. Make sure, you don’t talk bullshit about yourself, not even in a joking way. Because whatever you say, it propagates so carefully !!.
● Your inner circle.
What kind of people you possess near you really matters. Are they really the happy, cheerful and joyous kind of people who would encourage you when it’s needed. Be really wise while forming your inner circle. There’s no need to bring the whole rush/ trac into your inner circle. Keep it short. Because right people will only be knowing the importance of caring about self and self love and they will always remind you how important it is to care for yourself and self love.
● Your choice of music.
What kind of music do you listen to? Sad? Joyous? Enthusiastic, hyped of energy, motivation, aesthetic, romantic or aspiring. You feel the same way the music your ears perceive. Because music isn’t just music. It’s an emotion for people. Music is something where people come and relate to the lyrics of the song. Be picky in the choice and selection of music.
● Don’t be judgmental.
We all are humans and we all have a tendency to make blunders with our life or make us feel guilty of our past mistakes that we committed. I think the past is just important up to that point where you take important lessons and learn. Don’t carry the baggage of your past mistakes and don’t become judgmental about what you did in the past. It was past so let it be just a past and move on to the new chapters where you have to show love towards yourself and care for yourself.
● Be Assertive.
It’s better to say and confront a clear NO rather than to let ourselves be the sufferers. Don’t let yourself suffer because of other people. Saying no feels good and keeps you aside from a lot of emotional drama when it’s needed.
● Value Your worth.
- Keep out yourself from these people:
- When you talk and they don’t pay attention.
- When you talk and they are busy with their phone.
- You talk and they interrupt you often knowingly.
- They give you compliments but sarcastically.
- Your Passion and hobbies.
If you are pursuing a hobby and going through a short phase of discomfort because you are fond of exploring and always have that inquisitive child within you. This is a charming habit no matter what the situation and your schedule is. You make room for your hobbies and passion means you really care for yourself and have self love.
● Flush The grudges and dark past.
Everyone is somewhere bad in someone’s story right? Some people which you hate from the bottom of your heart but when you bring that negative feeling while thinking of them, that disturbs your peace and parity so why to invest your time thinking of those negative energies and people? Just let them out and make your mind and body free from that pain. That inner pain sucks you not them anymore so better you do this favor for yourself and make a move towards self-love.
● Bring Mindfulness.
Mindfulness is nothing but becoming so aware of the present moment. When you focus on mindfulness you don’t care about the future or worry about your past. You just live this particular moment in which you are existing right now.
Choose a good environment to create, work or to learn. Clean environment gives you the feeling of eternal freshness and freshness. And second thing is when you create a clean environment around yourself then you way more ahead to combat so called hygiene diseases. Better you care for the environment outside, the better the environment is inside.
● care routine.
Sometimes it feels good to care about epidermal care of your body. Many people love massages, some like to spend time in spas, others feel good to have a bold and funky haircut. The crux is, there is no one to tell you your skin and body care routine. You do what you like and prefer and relax.
● Proper sleep.
Nowhere I don’t mean to have a 10 to 5 morning sleep or night sleep. But bring your body to be at rest when it’s needed. And it’s very much evident that 7 to 8 hours of sleep is just better to rewire, unwind and wind up your brain and body. If you work continuously for like 5 to 6 hours don’t forget to take small power naps of 10 to 20 minutes. Power Naps are magical, try it and have your own experience. Proper sleep is self-love where you care for your work but don’t harm your body with active resistance to required rest.
● Don’t do pointers at night if you have self-love.
Before going to bed, never bring your thought process to the negative side in any way whether it’s by a sad movie, horror movie or negative talk or by having an argument.
