Self-Love Part 1: developing self-love through emotional awareness, 07/07/2021
In this episode of The Mindset Maniac, host Leslie Crevar talks about Self Love. She explains that Self-love is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from understanding and actions that support our physical, psychological, and emotional growth. Self-Love also means having a high regard for your well-being and happiness.
Episode Highlights:
- Leslie dives deeper into the meaning of Self-Love. According to Leslie, Self-Love is an active practice of accepting, caring, and encouraging oneself.
- Self-Love provides oneself with an opportunity to understand and see themselves completely.
- Leslie explains Self-Love with a classic example; she asks the listeners to consider themselves as house; she explains there are some things within our house that need work or attention. If we consistently step over or ignore the things that need work, we lose the opportunity to fix those things, and down the road, those things keep piling up.
- Just as the journey of self-awareness and self-growth differs from person to person, the definition may vary as well, says Leslie.
- Leslie points out, “Why having self-awareness is important?”
