Unconditional SELF Love

I came across an idea this weekend that I’m going to explore further. Unconditional SELF love. I used to live by the belief that only my momma & my children were entitled to my unconditional love & even then only up to a certain point. But this weekend I heard a podcaster use the term unconditional self love, she didn’t elaborate on it but I let my mind run free with the thought & begin to conjure images of what that would look like in my life. This is what I envisioned ~pouring love all over my flaws, my mistakes, my shortcomings. Loving myself however I exist in that moment & not waiting for the ideal number on the scale or good hair days or perfect skin days to speak kindly to myself & shower me with affection & compliments. Loving myself through conflicts with others & not shaming myself for my reactions & interactions. Knowing that my actions are good & not judging myself by some imaginary goal set by systems that don’t recognize my humanity. Acknowledging & centering my need for sleep, for peace, for water, for nourishing foods and not putting these needs on hold while I do ‘more important’ things. Listening to my body…peeing when I get the urge, not holding it till I ‘have time.’ Sleeping when I’m tired instead of trying to ‘catch up’ on sleep on less busy days. Exploring those things that fascinate me by visiting museums & exhibits & natural wonders & festivals…I could go on…but the thought that I was STILL putting soooo many of my own needs & desires on the back burner really encouraged me to begin the work of embracing unconditional SELF love …🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Self love has continued to save my life. When I realized if I wasn’t at my best then how could I gather the resources to show up for my daughter. Self love brought me back. It will continue to do that. So journaling daily committing to my yoga practice being in nature are self love languages for me. Sometimes I’m reminded to start small again with my self love. It doesn’t always have to equate to how much I spent today. Gratitude for this gentle reminder

We so often think of unconditional love as something we give. Rarely to we expect it from others and especially not our selves. What Im learning is this, what I want on the outside must first be given on the inside. If I want confidence , I need to shower myself in self love and support to build that. If I want to be my authentic self, I have to first learn what that word authentic means to me internally. Its work, to be sure, but its love.
