Learning self care can give you confidence and power –
The power to be in control during a life-threatening situation.
It starts with self love.

 Self-love!

Self-love is not simply a state of feeling good- it is an action. Self-love is a choice. It is a way of relating to yourself – being able to effectively communicate without harshly judging or punishing yourself. Standing up for what you need first without compromising your needs or values .

The type of love that actually contributes to our self-confidence and self-worth is based on realizing that we have unlimited courage- wisdom and compassion—just as we are.

Benefits of Self-Love

Research has shown that learning how to self-love is associated with-

  • Less anxiety and depression
  • Better recovery from stress
  • An overall more optimistic outlook on life
  • Interest in healthy behaviour changes
  • Self-love is about accepting who you are, and respecting yourself.
What do you say to yourself when you look in the mirror?

In short, Self-love is how you view yourself and how you treat yourself.

An interesting experiment done by a Japanese scientist- Dr Masaru Emoto – Japanese businessman & author who claimed that human consciousness/ emotions could affect the molecular structure of water. One of his books: The Hidden Messages of Water, was a New York Times best seller.

In his book he talked about how showing love or hate drastically affected the structure of water.

I’m mentioning this due to the profound affect our emotions and actions  to self love.

When I was attending school at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition- We talked about  Primary food. I thought the topic would focus on how eating certain foods are the keys to health-  rather, it was focused on how our emotions influence our health overall.

The emotion of hate has been proven to dramatically affect our wellbeing!

Similar to how the water texture changes by the emotion- hate.

There are plenty of positive reasons to Eat well- Exercise & Sleep there is no one style to follow. We are all unique! However, IF we Hate the thought or taking actions first ..Our results?  maybe not as favorable as we hope for.

Hating that diet or that exercise program could be the very reason you haven’t lost the ideal weight or feel good about your progress! 

POINT: Find a program that feels Fun!

 We have plenty of options..

Determination.

“ Determination is the key to growth and the source of Strength”

Self care is GREAT but without a skilled practitioner/coach, we could be in the dark with many aspects for our wellbeing.

It’s really important to understand how you feel and communicate confidently when you visit. 

If it doesn’t make sense or you have questions? ASK.. if they are not open to discuss your questions- Keep looking for a practitioner that is patient and a good listener !

I am happy to say my Doctor is such a practitioner- Dr. Lindsey Harding

I’m interviewing her in a separate podcast (below) where we will discuss these topics and more. Please check it out.

In closing..

A quote from Gilda Radner

While we have the gift of life, it seems to me the only tragedy is to allow part of us to die- whether it is our spirit our creativity or our glorious uniqueness.

Take good care of you and your loved ones..
