Self love journey

Hello!

One of my goals for the year is “To celebrate and be comfortable with sharing my true and authentic self”

Over the next month I’m focusing on the 30 day self love journey. I’ve just started days 1 + 2 and I’m struggling to answer the question “why wasn’t I able to be loving towards myself today”

The only things I can think of are:
“Because those are my beliefs” or “that’s how I think of myself” e.g. about not being good enough
Or “because I have a tendency towards perfection and people pleasing” which is more specific, but I’ve noticed that I then judge myself for those qualities too.
And then, things like “because it was a busy day and I didn’t have time to stop and catch my thoughts” feels a bit like an excuse.

Any tips?

 

Answer:

 

Check in on your thoughts about your reasons for not loving yourself today – what are you telling yourself about them? Why is it a problem that these are the reasons? What if they are also true?
