✨ Day 2: Shifting the Self-Love Mindset ✨
How did yesterday’s heart exercise feel for you? Was it easy to write kind things about yourself? Or did it feel a little uncomfortable?
I’ve done this exercise in a workshop before, but with a twist—I asked participants to first think of someone they deeply love, like a child, a parent, or a best friend. They wrote down a heart full of words describing that person. Then, they were asked to do the same for themselves.
It’s funny how effortless it is to list beautiful things about someone else, yet when it comes to ourselves, it can feel difficult. Why is that?
For so long, many of us have been taught that self-love is selfish—but I believe that couldn’t be further from the truth. Self-love is actually one of the most SELFLESS things you can do.
When we take care of ourselves, we show up as better partners, parents, friends, and leaders. We cannot pour from an empty cup, and it’s time we start filling our own—so we can give from a place of true love and wholeness.
✨ Today’s Challenge: Mirror Work & Affirmations ✨
- Stand in front of a mirror, look yourself in the eyes, and say out loud:💛 “I am worthy of love.”💛 “I am proud of who I am.”💛 “I deserve kindness—from myself and others.”
- Notice how it feels. Does any part of you resist it? If so, that’s okay—just take a deep breath and allow yourself to receive these words.
- If you’re feeling brave, share in the comments:🔸 What did this bring up for you?🔸 Which affirmation felt the most powerful?🔸 Did you add anything new to your heart from yesterday?
The more we practice self-love, the easier it becomes. This is how we shift our programming and step into the best version of ourselves—for both us and our loved ones.
💬 Bonus: If you want to take it a step further, write your affirmations down and place them somewhere you’ll see them often—like a mirror, phone screen, or journal!
I can’t wait to hear how this feels for you. Let’s keep pouring back into ourselves! 💛
