Do you truly know how to love yourself?
Answer:
Sure! ♥
Wanna watch?
.
Yes! I love myself.in what way? by not making abuse/harm to my body (e.g. smoking, using prohibited drugs, doing extreme games, not alcoholic, etc).Instead, regular exercise, eat healthy foods, etc.
by doing justice with others...... by giving respect and love to others b4 hoping to get it frm others.
and remember one thing: NO ONE CAN MAKE U FEEL INFERIOR WITHOUT UR CONSENT.
Yep, but some days it can be a challenge.
Thoughtful examples would be forgiving myself if I make a mistake or do something dumb.
Allowing myself to rest and recover because I work too hard most of the time (with particular attention to stress release)
Giving myself permission to pamper myself as a reward.
Not letting others bring me down at the same time as helping them.
Most of all having the discipline to eat properly and go to bed at a reasonable hour and making time available for exercise.
Asking for help when I need it and setting boundaries.
First off, if you have any insecurities get rid of them. That will only lead to lowering your self esteem which will only get worse over time. I suggest hanging out with close friends or getting a partner which will be there to make you feel better when your down especially. Picking up a hobby, especially one that keeps you in shape drastically improves mind and body. Run, swim, cycle, lift weights. And most of all, if you make someone else feel good, in return it will make you feel good as well.
I really work at it. I do respect myself, because I try to help others. I am respectful to others. I have many friends that feel as I do, and we believe that it's very important to conduct ourselves in a manner that allows us to love and respect ourselves. Loving ones self is very important; we have to live with ourselves, and it's much nicer to go thru life, knowing that we've treated others kindly, loved our friends and family, not done any harm to others, etc. ( living by the Golden rule helps)
An example of my feeling good about myself might be that I have a friend whos having a tough time with money. I could buy some groceries for her, or treat her to dinner or something. I respect myself for placing the value of a good person above money. It's only money..and love for others far outweighs love.
I love myself because I harm no one, and I can live with my actions.
I love the other answers about taking care of ones self by eating properly, excerczing, taking vitamins and pampering too. I try to do all that, too. That also helps us to love ourselves.
Great question!
By being kind to yourself firstly
Forgiving yourself if you make a mistake
Dressing as smartly as you can, it does not have to cost a fortune it can be done on a budget
going out and having a good time with friends
Being considerate of other people's feelings
Spend time on the things that are most important to you
Do no say what if say Why not
Simply by just being yourself and enjoying life
Everyone has it within his power to say "This I am Today, This is how I shall be tomorrow"
Work at it and you will succeed if you want it enough
Hello Love! This is something I wrote another person on depression. Some may not apply, but some deals with feeling better about yourself. I left it this way because you may be experiencing depression too. I hope this helps, Love. Good Luck & God Bless!

Depression
If you are looking for a quick fix for depression, I don't know if there is one without drugs… but I truly understand the need. I am also bipolar. With ADD, remembering my medication was a real dilemma. Tired of the struggle, I read that people taking an active role in their recovery had a greater chance of healing, so I began a search. The solutions were not immediate cures. They take time and continued effort, but my depression has diminished greatly. I still have difficult times. But they don't linger anymore.
First, I examined my thinking. This turned out to be a multipart issue. First, I had to consider what I thought and listened to, i.e., what I fed my mind; music, movies, friends, books. Was the input positive or negative/productive or destructive? I used to watch and listen to the news, sad songs, dramas, and people with negative opinions. I quit reading and watching the news, changed my music, watched more comedies and inspirational movies, and started reading stories that inspire me! That helped greatly.
Next, I realized my thoughts were molded from birth, and forgave those who taught me (they were also taught). Blame is pointless; forgiveness, EVERYTHING. I discovered sometimes we must remove ourselves from the negative stimulus, especially when people try drawing us back to old patterns. Change frightens them. It is scary because we become a different person. Sometimes friends and even family no longer play a part in our new life. I found myself grieving my change for awhile because I didn't seem to fit in anywhere. But it passed and I discovered new friends that inspired, rather than drained. Family can learn acceptance and may even change too, because you've set an example.
This next part is most important; the way I saw myself. I was in an abusive relationship and told many lies about who I was; pessimistic… violent… a bad mother… After 20 years of this, I lost myself. I no longer knew who I was! My confidence was gone; shattered. I couldn't believe friends and family when they said I was a good person. All the good I'd done in my life dissolved into a dismal haze.
A book that helped change my life (I think it was How We choose To Be Happy) said if you want to know who you are, just look at your friends. Happy people don't hang out at the gloomy club. I had some very good, kind, positive friends (I had been cut off from). I realized I Wasn't bad. I also discovered that if I didn't like something about myself, I could change it! Just because I didn't like something about myself didn't make me a bad person. It just made me Human and fallible.
Then there were all my self-help books and meditations. Meditation took time and patience, but I found it really helped. Now I can get lost in it for hours. I also found spirituality. Another book said anything you ask God (or The Universe) is answered. All you have to do is learn to listen. Answers come from everywhere (books, songs, children, movies, sudden thoughts…). We just need to pay attention. I found this to be very true.
And I discovered that everything is made up of energy. I learned to release the negative energy and draw in the positive, literally. It has helped greatly. The combination of these things has helped me change my life, which seems to have inspired others around me to change their lives too. We are all connected. We touch lives, even when we are unaware. I invite you to try any or all of these things. If you truly seek an answer, you WILL find your solution, Love. May you find what you are looking for. Good luck and may God bless.
nope.
