Self-Love beginning today 🌸💕

I have the worst relationship anxiety I’ve ever seen. I’m much healthier than my past relationships but it’s hard to not let those toxic traits slip out. I’ve been in a happy relationship for a little over a year now but taking the time to heal during that is a lot. I am also in school full time pursuing a law degree. I work full time as well. Things are very chaotic most of the time and I quite often spend my car rides home in a panic cry but overall I am healthy and happy.

Self-love is hard to accept. I’ve lost almost 50 pounds in the past year and I feel much better overall but I hate the way I feel I come off to others. I wish I wasn’t so afraid of everything. Fear of being alone, abandoned, unloved, too much, not enough, to mess up, talk too much, talk to little. I hate it and im exhausted. I don’t know why I feel this way. I give so much love and kindness into the world and I feel like I never get it back.

Anyways if you made it this far remember "The most valuable asset you own isn't money. It's your ability to think clearly in a world designed to confuse you. Mental clarity is wealth."

... Read moreSelf-love is often easier said than done, yet it is crucial for mental well-being. Many struggle with self-acceptance, especially when past traumas linger and anxiety creeps in. Engaging in self-care practices, such as mindfulness, can greatly enhance one’s ability to deal with negative emotions. It's important to replace self-criticism with kindness and patience. Recognize that feelings of inadequacy and fear are common, and finding support through community can aid in the healing journey. Embrace the idea that vulnerability is a strength, and sharing your experiences can pave the way for deeper connections and understanding. Using affirmations and setting personal goals can help nurture self-love. Celebrate small victories and allow yourself to feel joy in the process. Also, consider professional help, like therapy, which can provide guidance and strategies to overcome feelings of anxiety and low self-worth. Remember, the path to embracing self-love is a unique journey, tailored to you. Trust the process, and take it one step at a time.
