There are times in life when every day feels like a battle. The road is tough, the climb is steep, and the burden is heavy. It is those moments we may search everywhere for encouragement.. Sometimes we need to rest, and catch our breath. What's important is that we get back up, we keep moving, stay focused, and never quit! 💙

Be kind to yourself. The world is full of harsh words and critique - don't add yours to the mix. Speak kindly to yourself, and don't call yourself mean things. Celebrate yourself. Think about how far you've come, how you've survived. Don't forget to celebrate yourself, and not only on your birthday! 💙

Another step to achieving total Self-Love is: Don't be afraid to let go of toxic people. Not everybody takes responsibility for the energy they put out into the world. If there's someone who is bringing toxicity into your life and they won't take responsibility for it, that might mean you need to step away from them. Don't be afraid to do this. It's liberating and important, even though it may be painful.
Remember: Protect your energy. It's not rude or wrong to remove yourself from situations or the company of people who are draining you. 💙

Have you ever looked around at other happy people, and wondered: How do they do it? How do they manage to feel so good? One important coping skill these folks will say is that they stopped comparing themselves to others. We're socialized to be competitive, so comparing ourselves to others is natural. But it can be dangerous. There's just no point in comparing yourself to anyone on this planet because there's only one you. Rather, focus on yourself and your journey. The shift of energy, alone, will help you feel free. 💙

Feel pain and joy as fully as you can. Allow yourself to feel things fully. Lean into pain, revel in your joy, and don't put limitations on your feelings. Like fear, pain and joy are emotions that will help you understand yourself and ultimately realize that you are not your feelings. 💙

Allow yourself to make mistakes. We're told again and again from a young age "nobody's perfect, everyone makes mistakes." But the older you get, the more pressure you feel never to fail. Cut yourself some slack! Make mistakes so you can learn and grow from them. Embrace your past. You're constantly changing and growing from who you once were into who you are today and who you will be one day. 💙

Today is just another chapter in my life's story. As far as affirmations go, this one should help build your self-worth. What you did yesterday or last week doesn't define the rest of your life. Every day that you wake up is a fresh start. A chance to start over, to set doubts and fears aside, and go after what you want. Life is a journey not a trip. Be patient. Take things slowly and just keep pushing through. Remember how wonderful you are. 💙
