"The relationship you have with yourself will set the tone of every relationship you have"
One of my most favourite quotes because it has so much truth behind it.
I used to be the jealous girlfriend... The girl who felt insecure around other women and being too shy to speak her mind about it. It had nothing to do with those people - but everything to do with how I felt about myself....I didn’t realize it at the time but I was settling into situations that made me feel low vibe & bad about myself. I was holding MY OWN SELF back because I felt unworthy. I felt like I didn't deserve better and I didn't know what to do about it. I kept myself settling in "good enough" because I didn't feel as though I deserved any better.
I've complied a list of tools and insights that I've used to dramatically shift the relationship I had with myself from a self-hate to a self-loving relationship. Which in turn, changed all of the relationships and friendships that I have in my life into more loving and positive ones!
Please, stop doubting yourself. You are so worthy and you have so much love inside of you. Sometimes we forget to truly see ourselves for who we are. So I wanted to share with you some tips on how you can boost your relationship with yourself so that you can truly start to see how amazing you are.
8 Tips you can use to improve your relationship with yourself
Focus your time and energy into improving YOU!
When you get on a Fitness Routine and start consuming healthy nourishing foods, it will raise your vibration which in turn will make you feel better, more energized, more positive, more confident and so many other things. When you feel good you attract people who feel good and love to take care of themselves too!
Invest your Self into Personal Development
As humans we are always craving growth, from the moment we're born we are here to evolve. Physically, Mentally, Emotionally. So sometimes in life we can get into "getting by" but it doesn't feel very good... Start taking up some Personal Development Practices such as reading, taking online or in person courses, listening to podcasts, going to workshops. When you add VALUE to yourself - it will boost your confidence, your energy and your passion.
Speak kindly to yourself & others
STOP the gossiping and negative self talk!! - When you talk badly about yourself you make yourself feel worse, it t won’t do anything but bring you down. Also, everything that you give to others, you are really doing to yourself. When you compliment yourself, it makes you feel good, right? When you compliment someone, it makes you feel good too!
Fill up your cup first!
Please yourself before trying to please everyone else. You need to put on your oxygen mask before you try to save everyone else, because otherwise you can lose yourself. You need to fill up your own love cup before trying to fill anyone else’s Listen to my Why is it so important to do Self Care Podcast Speaking of...
Practice Emotional Awareness DAILY
Your MENTAL & EMOTIONAL wellbeing are IMPORTANT - work on it by doing practices such as journalling, meditation & talking it out. We have so much going on inside of our heads, it can be overwhelming to hold onto it all that it ends up exhausting us emotionally. Make sure that you're releasing your emotions and thoughts, because each time you let go of something you're making room for something new.
Nourish yourself from the inside out
Fuel your body & remember that food is meant to provide you with energy - not make you feel like bad afterwards. One of my favorite things to ask myself before eating something is "will this give me energy, or take my energy?" This way you can decifer your decision before making it!
Check in with yourself
This is so so important... We can get caught going through the motions and doing things and sacrificing ourselves for other people. If you ever find yourself in a situation that doesn't feel good, take a step back and ask yourself “Is this situation helping me or hurting me?”
Become aware of your triggers
Are there some things that continually come up for you? Do you ever find yourself asking "Why does this always happen to me?" There is very likely to be an underlying lesson or wound that needs to be healed...
Do you continually attract the "wrong" kind of guy? Do you find yourself stuck in a cycle of self-sabotoge? Do you find certain things ALWAYS annoy you? What’s the trend? Do you know what your triggers are? And most importantly... REMEMBER - You are worthy! 💛 You can 100% live a happy, healthy & positive life It starts with you — so stay focused on you. and remember to take care of yourself first!
