How Self-Love Truly Works
An Act of Integration
Do you ever question how deep your love can go for yourself?
One of the most essential qualities to integrate into your life is love for oneself. Most of the time, when I read about self-love and self-care, it’s articles on how to take a bath, light candles, and nourish self-time, but I disagree.
Sure, those acts are tender and caring for yourself, but the actual act of self-love is releasing the confines and conditioning that you are not acceptable in your authentic self. Where you release self-doubt, step into acceptance, and shine your truth.
Lately, I’ve been breaking through residual programming from childhood about playing small. I thought that to be in the world, I had to diminish my light so people could accept me. What would happen if I was fully myself?
I’ve been told I’m too much, too passionate, too wild, too spastic all my life, and told I go into discussions that scare people. I challenge the status quo too much.
However, the greatest act of self-love has been learning how to accept myself, live authentically, and honor my body.
Often, we crave improvement in our relationship with ourselves, which is necessary because we are the person we’re with every single moment of the day. Honoring this deep connection goes beyond what we want to extract from life. It is for the sake of being in harmony with our purpose.
When this is achieved, the world begins to echo externally what we are creating internally. A surrender of the utmost trust is required because the world shifts in ways we’re uncomfortable with once the truth is honored.
As I relinquish my shame about who I am, the world has opened up to bring people into my life who appreciate my passion, my frankness, and my willingness to dive into the depths of the human psyche.
I recognize that the power in my one-on-one containers is in going to places that my clients are aching to explore within a brave space created for them without shame. The deeper I go into my authenticity, the deeper my clients go. There might be fear of what will be uncovered, but the juiciness in the discovery brings forward the lasting transformation because the best part of oneself is being integrated.
My favorite way to engage with the integration of this kind is through flower essences. It gives space for emotional evolution.
