- regard for one’s own well-being and happiness (chiefly considered as a desirable rather than narcissistic characteristic).
The body heals with play, the mind heals with laughter, and the spirit heals with joy. ~ Proverb
Imagine how you treat yourself on a daily basis as if you were another person, in a relationship with you.
Are you good to yourself? Is your mind kind to your body and soul?
In my practice and my own psycho-spiritual journey, I see that at times we all:
- Beat ourselves up with cruel self-talk
- Set ourselves up for failure with unrealistic expectations
- Deprive ourselves of things we deserve through self-sabotaging behaviors
- Abuse our bodies through neglect or harmful choices
These behaviors wreak havoc on our mental and physical health, our relationships, and our careers. We must choose a different path.
