Many women have a tendency to take care of others before taking care of themselves. We do whatever we can for our kids, partners, parents, friends ? and even strangers sometimes.? We end up exhausted and disappointed that we don’t receive as much love as we give.

But do we give it to ourselves?

Do we treat ourselves as well as we treat others?

We all have a beautiful, authentic, kind, genuine spirit.

It’s our ego and the negative thinking in our head that keep us disconnected from our spirit.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath and look within your heart. Like there is nothing else around. Just you, your breathe and your heart. The inner peace you feel when you do that, even if it’s for only a few seconds ? that’s how it feels when you are in touch with your spirit.

Recognizing your spirit, finding this love within yourself, will help you love and accept yourself which will in turn help you take care of others.

Don’t feel selfish! Feeling loved is your birthright. It’s only once you start taking care of yourself that you can really start to take care of others.

Bottom line: Accept that you are a beautiful, authentic, kind, genuine spiritual being.

Ask: If I were my best friend, what would I love about myself?

Affirm: I love myself because loving myself is part of my spiritual journey.
