I have finally found self love ❤️
I have been on such a long journey in the last two years to really focus on finding myself. I have had so much pain from not knowing who I am, feeling lost in marriage and being a mother and changing myself to try to gain love.
This journey has led me back to who I was when I was a child, who I was when I was a teenager. That girl was never “weird” or “sensitive”, she was just surrounded by hate. I am free now, and
finding love for myself has come hand in hand with finding witch craft, embracing the earth, embracing interests I have no matter how odd or if I had someone to share it with.
Loving my soul is what has brought me to love my body, and I still struggle so much, but to even feel that a fraction of the time is such a win #findingyourself #witchcraftjourney #shadowworkhealing #learningtoloveyourself #naturetherapy
Finding genuine self-love often requires deep introspection and embracing parts of ourselves that have been suppressed or misunderstood. This journey frequently involves revisiting past experiences, reflecting on childhood and adolescent selves who faced judgment, isolation, or internal turmoil. Many individuals find empowerment by exploring alternative spiritual paths such as witchcraft, which connects them more profoundly to the earth and their unique interests, regardless of societal norms. Integrating practices like shadow work helps uncover and heal hidden emotional wounds that may be barriers to self-love. Shadow work encourages acknowledging all facets of oneself, even those deemed uncomfortable, which fosters authenticity and growth. Nature therapy complements this process by promoting grounding, mindfulness, and a compassionate connection to the environment, reinforcing self-compassion and holistic well-being. It's important to recognize that self-love is not about perfection but nurturing acceptance and patience with oneself. Struggles with body image or emotional challenges may persist, yet feeling progress—even incrementally—is a significant win. By weaving together these practices, individuals can build resilience, freedom from external judgment, and a harmonious relationship with their soul and body. This holistic approach supports sustainable self-love and personal transformation while honoring the unique paths everyone takes.
