Our self-love and perceived self-worth have vast implications on what we think we are capable of and what we think we deserve.
Many women seem to lack self-love and it impacts everything, from who they speak to, what they do in their careers, how they parent and how they love their partners, just to name a few.
The journey of self-love is a long one, but it is much easier to navigate when you have self-loving actions and ways of being that you can call upon when needed.
Here are 25 ways to nourish your self-love so that you can be kinder to yourself and to others.
1.Thank your body for all that it does instead of criticizing it for what you think it lacks.
2.Say NO when you mean no. You will still be loved.
3.Get out of your comfort zone, often. Magic truly does live there.
4.Trust yourself more. Listen to your inner voice. The voice that just told you that you do not have an inner voice, that is your inner voice.
5.Learn to forgive yourself and others. We are all human, doing our best with what we have.
