Me to self: Self love is not selfish, self love is not selfish, SELF LOVE IS NOT SELFISH
Yeah self love is not selfish ^^
That’s what I need to tell myself non- stop
But the moment you try to show the little tiny bit of self-love and confidence, everyone thinks you're selfish and narcissistic... ._.
Self love is selfish. And that’s completely okay
True! Self love is selfish, and it's important to know when being selfish is healthy @@ericodavidtabo3086
Don't spend countless hours entertaining yourself in the hope of implementing it someday. Close youtube after watching this video and implement something you watched.

Stop comparing yourself to others.
Don't worry about others' opinions.
Allow yourself to make mistakes.
Remember your value doesn't lie in how your body looks.
Don't be afraid to let go of toxic people👍
Thank you for this comment 💜 I really needed it
❤️✨ Thanks!
How can i get toxip people out if he is my bro :0
ok, I need people to argue with me because I can literally find something I disagree with in every single one of your advices:
1. Stop comparing yourself to others:
I am an above average student, I managed to get into the best highschool in town I have always had good grades I won or did very well in a lot of competitions, but for me it was not enough since I knew I could do more, and when I failed I felt bad about myself. When I would say things like I am bad or I am stupid my friends would say things like: "well you are smarter than most of your peers don't be so hard on yourself". That...made me feel better. In my case the better advice would be TO compare myself to others, and knowing that just reversing an advice makes it work sometimes as well and that it basically exists for you to just feel better and not as acual advice, it makes it empty.
2. Don't worry about other's opinions
Now this is almost like saying don't worry about paying taxes. Your relations with other people and other people's opinions about you **matter**. In fact just being a dick might make you lose your friends, since you become the toxic person you yourself recommend to let go. Ignoring other people's opinions can make your whole life lonely. Being nice or trying to be nice is a good thing, not a bad thing.
3. Allow yourself to make mistakes.
Well there is one thing we can agree on, mistakes are bad right? Well accepting your mistakes as normal things can make you ignorant to them and stop you from self improving. I mean if your mistakes are ok why should you put effort into not doing them? This mentality is obviously stupid.
4. Remember your value doesn't lie in how your body looks.
I mean, if we are to ignore other people's opinions, your value is what you think it is, or rather what you decide it is. For a super model or culturist (idk if this is a word in English I mean people who grow muscles competetivly), how their body looks is the most important thing ever. For you, I mean you decide. If we are to take into account other people's opinion, we all judge based on looks at least somewhat. If you are fat, if your hair is all over the place, if you haven't taken a shower in ages.
5. Don't be afraid to let go of toxic people
Yes so this person is being mean almost all the time, he tells me that he has suicidal toughts because of problems he has in his family. Other people aren't inclined to help him because of his behaviour and he understands that it is bad,but says he is unable to change. He constantly tells you abou his problems and asks for help without ever doing anything to better himself. Oh what I should just stop talking to him and just kinda hope he doesn't kill himself when one of his last friends leave him? Without feeling morally accountable in any way as in that is acually the rightious, good and moral decision? Oh cool thx for the advice bro.
I've been sitting here crying about someone who doesn't like me and blaming myself this is just the thing i need thank you
I did a few weeks ago cry over a crush😌..but it will be ok Your gonna be ok💗Take care 🌸💖
I love you♡
However and whoever makes you feel selfish just because YOU chose to put yourself first, THEY are the selfish , self-centred ones , because they weren’t placed first on your list. Just remember that to give your best in any situation or to anyone , you must firstly have 100% of yourself in order to help others. ❣️Be true to yourself always... others will love you and stand by your side... ❤️God bless all
that person doesn't deserve you then. dont blame yourself for that sort of thing please. i love you, we love you
I love you!!
Let's spread love!!!
_If you want to love others, learn to love yourself._
_If you want to help others, learn to help yourself._
*_If you want to heal others, heal yourself before them._*
*_That is the golden rule we all need._*
Beautifully summarized.
So love our self first.. before we love others
off to heal myself before a person thats about to die from blood loss
@@HolisticDistraction5Selflove and healing yourself is not selfish... It's like showing people how you treat yourself on how you want to be treated and treating other people like a mirror,when you give respect to them, respect will also reflect back to you,so if you are cruel,you didn't truly love yourself because when you are cruel,you're showing your behavior to other people how you want to be treated.You can't pour from an empty cup,you cannot share oxygen to another person in an airplane if you yourself is suffocating
@@HolisticDistraction5are you insinuating that self love is selfish?

Aww I feel this.. what worked for me was daily/weekly to do lists with check boxes on the side! Works wonders when you actually utilize the to-do list. True productivity breeds confidence and self love! Many blessings!
@@coachtlove thank you!
Before my depression I used to really hate myself and find fault in myself due to others' actions. I healed from that phase and have started to accept and love myself now. Some of the closest people in my life started to bring me down because I was getting confident, and they told me that I was self absorbed. I decided to cut ties with them and I was feeling so awful, thought it was selfish. I feel much better after this. I really needed this so thank you ❤️
Kareensha, you made the right call!
As a confident person myself I am usually told similar things (usually as a joke) But loving yourself is not selfish/self absorbed, as long as you know you have the right intentions at heart :) I wish you all the best with your future heeling journey 💕

Self-love is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from actions that support our physical, psychological and spiritual growth. Self-love means having a high regard for your own well-being and happiness. Self-love means taking care of your own needs and not sacrificing your well-being to please others.
@Krishna Patel I am from India I completely agree with what you said
well shit i guess i fucking hate myself...
I agree, it's not fun to do things to please other people. That's where setting boundaries is important.
Thank you, this helps me! I've gotten to the point that I do care about how I'm feeling and try to do the right thing, while also avoiding being critical if it's not apparent. I consider it vital to be honest with boundaries, and to be clear if I'm not feeling up to something. To know that this means I'm practicing self-love means I know I've hella improved.
AMEN TO SELF LOVE..🎼🎧🎼😎🎼🎧😎😎🎼🎼😎🎼🎧🔥🎶🎶💫✨🙏🎶🙏✨⚖️🎶🎸📸🎥🔥8/8/2022
Never let others thoughts get to you. Never believe what people talk bad about you. Never let someones opinion affect you. Theyre nobody to judge you. Never let them be a reason for you to hate yourself. Bcoz that literally ruins your happiness. And they wouldn't even care. So never stop loving yourself. Know your worth.
@키라Kira thank you😊. There was a time when I believed those people and ik how much it cost me. I love myself now. And im glad i learned how to. Hope this video helps people love themselves ❤️
But how could we do that?
I've noticed that the more I learn to love and accept myself, the easier and more joyful I find it to love and accept others. That in turn causes others to better love and accept me, which helps me see the good in myself. It's a lovely cycle.
Huh, I never thought of it as a cycle. That’s interesting! I’ll keep that mind. Thanks!
Interesting point! It's true!
The worst thing about being early is there's no comments to like. 🙄

2# is so relatable. I’m sometimes scared to love myself because I don’t want to seem rude. I was focusing on everyone else’s needs to the point I wasn’t doing anything for myself. I didn’t want to seem rude, so I didn’t do anything to love myself. This video really helped with that. Thank you💖💖💖💖
Thanks for sharing!! Glad you find it helpful
Same I can relate as well #2, Its always think about others and no time for self
I'm on my self love journey. I started last year after lock down. I was always out initially, out dancing, out for happy hours, out for everything I could possibly find, but never ever dared to just stay home and build confidence, self compassion and awareness. Lock down changed that. Very challenging at first and still is sometimes, but very much worth it. I associate with people from a much higher ground. I am happier, calmer and more myself. I meditate, pray, journal and it has calmed my spirit a lot. I go to my inner child a lot and draw from her. When I was younger, my parents loved my sister more, I was compared negatively to her. Also, my dad was abusive and our household was so chaotic and frightening for me as a child, so it led to this self hate and lack of self confidence. But, hoping to work on it, and be a better person
Thats crazy! It was the exact opposite for me. I started after lock down to but I mostly stayed to myself and spent most my time texting instead of actually hanging out with my friends. Lock down made me realize I missed that one to one interaction and face to faceness. Since im super introverted it kinda shocked me. I started going out more and just being in nature, I journal more to now (it rlly is so calming^^lol) I dealt with abusive parents to- im really sorry you had to go through that I hope you're doing better now and that someone can treat you right to make up for that :( How is your journey going now? I'm finding self love is one of the hardest things I've ever had to deal with. Coping with self hate mainly. I still seek validation due to having a neglectful dad so I found that was the hardest part.- creating love within when you cant really explain it, and meeting ppl who can give you that kind of love is pretty hard. I'm proud of you for making the change you needed
@@aurora_boketto7746 I'm so happy reading your message. Lockdown was definitely a turning point for most people, I think we all had to find ways to cope. I think for me there was just so much of the same constant negativity and never questioning the validity of the negative thoughts.
I am happily on my journey still. I think the worst is behind me. After abuse or any kind of trauma, there's an inner child in us that hasn't grown that is the source of a lot of our negativity. We have to reparent that child and bring her to the surface. I do a lot of affirmations, some while I'm sleeping. But some whilst awake. I question my negative thoughts and trust in my intuition more. Things will be fine. Im sending you virtual hugs cause I know that missing love from a parent is so hard. Affirmations have helped me to stop seeking so much external validation. They've helped somewhat. But, im in a place where I trust myself more. And with self trust, I also know that even if I make a mistake, things will be fine. So, im doing good😊
@@jewlzn7130 I'm so happy you're doing good! Hugs xx!! I had to learn to question a lot of the negative thoughts as well. Its crazy that we have to learn that lol I'm glad you trust yourself to, that such a hard thing to learn. I'll have to try self affirmations xD Its so good you understand this topic a lot, self love n trust requires a lottt of understanding
WAIT WHY DID we have the Same childhood. Same shit with my sister and my dad
Abuse issues too, even today (I'm 23).

Self-love takes a lot of practice and loving ourselves is a choice we can make. No matter how much other people can love us, we won't be truly content if we don't have the space for it ourselves on the inside. The kindness and compassion we so easily give to others? We need to extend that towards ourselves too 💓 Hope we all choose ourselves today and every single day. The relationship we have with ourselves is most important and can set the tone for every other relationship you have 💫 Here's to all of us healing, reflecting, and practicing 👊

I'm always scared that I'll do something wrong, that I'll hurt someone and that I'll ruin my own life. But my friends, my family told me that I should stop feeling guilty about everything and love myself more than anything. That it's not always my fault and even when it is that's okay, I'm just a person and I also make mistakes and I should accept myself. I should learn how to not be scared to loose people cause I know it'll happen a lot. It just happens in life. You start a new chapter without them and even if it was your fault it's good to move on. The people I love helped me without even noticing and that's why I love them all so so much
We're not alone ❤️ we're all just people and no matter what happened, always love yourself!
We all have insecurities but that what make everyone special, so just be you
Self love is hard for me.
I have Autism, ADHD, OCD, and Anxiety.
When high school started for me a few years ago its been hard to keep myself happy and when covid came in 2020 and quarantine happened I shattered, and I was drained.
I am in therapy now and Im a senior in high school, my passions are Music/Performing arts, and Esports/Pro Gaming.
aww im so sorry :< also its good that you are in therapy now! its going to make you feel better uwu
Keep doing what you like and keep up the amazing work :)
I have epilepsy and seizures and learning disabilities and autism too I feel you it is hard 💖💖💖🥰🥰😭❤️
I hope after 1 year, you at least have yourself now dear.
I feel like my flaws are permanent. Almost like they define me.
It may seem that way to you, but I assure you, other people won't even notice those flaws until you point them out (psychical or like, ugh I'm so annoying and similar). We are not meant to be perfect because flaws also have something positive - it makes you unique and human. Maybe even social media wants you to think that way but I promise that you're perfect in your own way and flaws won't define you forever! (coming from a person that was very self absorbed by my flaws that I forgot I also have good qualities for almost a decade)
@@uhwhat9732 thank you, I needed to read that 🙂
Same
Maybe not all flaws, but yea, some flaws are permanents. But they don’t define you; they are a part of you. And your flaws deserved to be loved just as much as your strengths. For me, that’s how you really love yourself .
You might be surprised to find how much healing happens in your surroundings when you start to live in self-love.
Although especially at the beginning you might run into many issues, because you're growing and start to change and not everyone around you may like or support that change. But once you're through with shedding whoever cannot follow (and there's no judgement in this), even if noone is left, there'll still be you. And that self-loving you is a compass and a magnet in life.
It's such a relief to know your pace and communicate it. People who came along or come in might surprise you with not only being accepting and loving, they'll also eventually feel something that maybe could be described as "the social permission to do the same". Because even if we technically require no permission, it's still significantly easer to do something (or not do something) when there's no judgment and resistance to overcome.
When I think who is the person I love the most then I think of me. My self love is always constant. Sometimes I do feel that I am not good or want to hate myself but that thought does not last for long and I come back to loving myself
We need to explain what “prioritizing your needs” mean, because there are some real selfish people out there who take this to another level. When you’re forced to do something you don’t want to, because of whatever reason, that’s where you can prioritize yourself. Putting yourself first no matter what you makes you look selfish, but there are times in which it’s totally fine
Agree~ This can apply in both professional and personal life. Don’t let others take you for granted or overusing you.
Thank you for being here, I'm a HUGE people pleaser and these videos are teaching me to live better step by step. Please continue to be amazing because there are so many people out there like me!
I think i'm not ready to love myself yet, so i started "injecting" self-respect in me, walking in the woods, at the sunset, in the dark. This way, i fight external demons first, then i'm ready to fight my internal demons. I'm almost sure nobody cares, but still, the fact That i left this means a lot
I think you're doing really great and it makes a lot of sense its like giving yourself time to build up self-esteem and courage to do the tricky bits I've definitely done the same and I wish you all the best :)

Fantastic video!
I've discovered that a common obstacle to self-love is the internalized negative voice from our parents. When we affirm to our inner child with statements like "I love you as you are," "You are important to me," and "You can trust me," the internalized parent often makes it feel like we're deceiving ourselves. Actively highlighting our flaws, it strives to prevent us from embracing self-love. Thus, a crucial step in cultivating self-love is often replacing this internalized parent and boldly telling it to leave us be.
Guys ive made a change you should be proud. I finally stopped watching “ways to know if your crush likes you videos” and now i am watching “ways to love yourself videos” ❤
Recently I started to realize how many of my friends don't love themselves. It saddens me, and also it shows me more clearly why do they struggle so much. I always tell them that I know self love is hard, but the first step is to make peace with ourselves. We tend to judge ourselves way hursher than we judge anyone else. It is only natural, but we dhould give ourselves some slack. "If I met someone who was exacyly like me, what would be my opinion on them?"
I think that many of us would like ourselves. So why all the stress?
Being able to understand ourselves, befriend ourselves and forgive ourselves is so important
I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day..gifts, chocolates, and spending quality time with your partner. I’m single and to be honest I prefer spending time with myself. Because I’m a kind of person that gets easily drained from focusing, so much on my career, and studies. Thanks for making this.
I’m a spiritual person, and I like to practice mindfulness by doing meditation for anything including self-love.
I'm still in the process of healing from my own trauma. Recently I've made major changes to my life that people around me have noticed. One of these changes was I used to be so selfless that I put others first. In turn this hurt me a lot and only added stress to my plate making me unhappy. Recently I've started saying No and putting myself first or saying that I am gunna finish what I need first then help others. In turn my sister noticed this and was mad at me. She told me that self care is a good thing, but that I'm being selfish by putting myself first. I told her "No, to have self care you need to be a little selfish. There's no way you can take care of yourself without being a little selfish. It's okay to put yourself first. I've always put others first, now I'm learning to put myself first and that's ok. It's what I need for my own happiness and is healthy." She in turn tried making me feel guilty and told me I was selfish. Then she continued to try to tell me what I needed to do to not be selfish. She said instead of her helping my dad with his projects that I need to. I told her "I don't have to help anyone I'm not willing to. If I wanna focus on myself because all I've done for years is focus on others then I can do that. If you don't wanna help our dad with his projects then say so, but don't try to guilt trip me into doing what you want me to. I'm always gunna look out for myself first, then others. If everyone is drowning and I put on my life vest first then I can help a lot more people. Otherwise if I don't someone could drag me down with them and I could drown, or I would get exhausted from trying to stay afloat while trying to help everyone. You can't let yourself exhaust all that energy helping others to the point that you hurt yourself." She got really quiet and thought about it. Although she still felt bothered by my choice, she knew her opinion and what she wanted wasn't gunna happen. I wasn't going to budge and do what she wanted. I wasn't going to put myself last again. Some people will challenge you when you start putting yourself first, but don't let them push your boundaries. Stand strong and keep doing what's best for you. Her opinion hasn't changed, but she has left me alone about it. Never feel bad for taking care of yourself, and make it clear to others no matter what they want of you that you ultimately will do what makes you happy. That their opinions won't change what you choose out of your own best interest.
It has been over two years that I follow your channel and it has heleped me A LOT in my journey to understand what the root of my problems where, what my trumas are and how to work with and around them to build a better version of myself. It has been a very long while I have been working on accepting and learning how to like myself first and then even love myself!
What you said in the video about following your heart even if people around you pressure and expect you to follow a certain path resonates SO much with me. I'll be an history of art major soon but that ain't for me, I'm finishing this thing out of desperation at this point, I wanna go to academy of art right after this hell is done and NO ONE in my family understands or supports me- my own brother even criticizes me going as far as he can to spread his toxicity in my life. He thinks the only path possible is anything similiar to his own.
My parents seem to understand that art is the onlt thing meant for me tho, at least that.
I really needed this video, I have no words to thank you. Keep your work up, the people you're helping without even knowing are countless!! ✨️
Life is hard, why people think it's easy. It's easy when u fine
"Part of loving yourself is feeling and expressing these (difficult) emotions without criticising yourself." I will be hanging this quote on a wall so I can see it every day and I will be reminded of this. That might help me get through some rough patches.
Number seven reminds me of one of my favorite anime quotes:
"Before you save anyone you've got to save yourself first, then you can worry about them."
-Rin Tohsaka
I had a very good day today, even practiced self care and took care of my needs and kept myself busy! By the end of the day I felt drained, tired and began feeling sad out of nowhere!
‘Self Love isn’t always fun’, I hear you! I’m currently winding down in bed, because I want to support myself to get 8 hours of sleep every night. I’m trying to be disciplined 😄
I have learned to love myself this 2021
It really makes me feel happy ☺️
I don't take it too far unless I don't see that it's already going too far
It feels like someone is there for me...
Please guys, love yourself and balance it with others
Follow your dreams, not other's dreams
...I just realized I might have a rather weak self-concept. I see myself as worth maintaining because I believe I can do good for the world, sure, but it feels like I barely know who I am emotionally.
Late ik but I feel like your self concept is very grounded, powerful, and morally makes a lot of sense. This is the kind of person I try to be. I would only say if you get to know yourself emotionally, you may be not only better at maintaining yourself but also at the ideal of contributing good to the world
Putting the effort to heal has been the best form of self-love I've done for myself
I've always loved myself but I started practicing self-love consciously in the past year to be able to heal from a very devastating heartbreak. As you said in the video (which is really very sweet and incredibly helpful💖🙏🏻) it's very important to give ourselves love and compassion when healing emotional wounds. It's been a really bumpy journey, full of ups and downs but when I look back I am happy and proud that I have made it so far. I've been practicing yoga and meditation for years, and these two are my favourite tools of self-love.🌺 Or it can also be just a good relaxing bath in the companion of my favourite crystals, or dancing to my favourite music, or reading a good book, or walking in nature, or journaling my feelings... Anything that makes my soul shine 🥰
And also, probably the most important lesson to me: setting boundaries... To learn that no matter how much I love someone, I should not love him more than myself, and that I should not give up any parts of myself for anyone. 🙏🏻💖
It's crazy bc everyone who knows me sees me as being successful for someone my age bc I've done performing and now I'm an alumni thespian. It's been YEARS since I've truely felt self love. I'm starting to not feel so self conscious about my looks I was self conscious in middle and high school but now everything is getting better. I still have a long way to go especially when it comes to loving the person I am inside
I love the VO actresses voice - so soothing haha intonation is always on point
I have never had any self love in my life, and I do not think I ever will. But after watching this video, maybe I can change and take the steps necessary in order to value and cherish my life.
I was just about to break then I told myself I was there for her,told her to hold on because she is worth it and she is not alone. All mountains will be climbed. Go for ur dreams guys, even when hurting,treat yourself with self discipline to achieve ur highest self
I started to practice self-love a few months ago, it wasn't easy in the beginning i didn't know much about what self-love is exactly or how do i do it but slowly i started to do stuff for myself, started to listen to myself and made time for myself and i am still try and discovering this area.
I'm in the process of loving myself, my therapy just started a few days ago and I'm really happy to finaly start my life, I feel like it's really going to help me. Thank you for making those videos, I was so scared to go to therapy, it took me so much time but now and thanks to your videos I'm here and I'm starting to heal, I'm also starting to accept myself for who I am... I actually am for the first time in my life proud of myself and I'm ready for this, I'm ready to learn how to love myself... Thank you again. You helped me a lot like my friends did too. Please continue with making videos. And to all who reads this, if you feel like something is wrong with you. Don't ever be scared to look out for help, they will hear you and listen to your thoughts, they will show you that you are worth of living, loving and being happy. Never be scared to be yourself, you are precious and worth of being loved. ❤️❤️❤️
Man I needed to hear this😭. Some of these things I discovered myself like self love is not a linear process. I had days when I was feeling on top of the world and there were other days when I was crying and asking god why I had to deal with this anyways.
I thought this was a new area which needed a lot of study and that I won't find anything meaningful. But you people have put everything a person requires to start self love in such a beautiful way and for free. Your channel is the best thing that has happened to internet for all the people who struggle with mental health issues.
Thanks for this:) i kinda needed to hear that it's okay to feel crappy. At a previous job a coworker would say that if i was grumpy or sad that i was one of those people that could influence everybody around me. Kinda anoying if someone tells that to you because it made me feel guilty and angry for laying that presure on me:/.
So yea im trying to accept it if im feeling like crap and need time to heal.
I created a scale system! From 1 to 10. On how much I give myself vs others. I love to keep it around 5 for me and 5 for others. That means majority of the time we are equals. Sometimes when I am being selfish it might be 7 for me and 3 for others. It can vary ! Try this assessment ! Super easy. One love family. #healed #healing #loveguru #selflove #selfmastery #kindness
Smart idea!!
The. Ist important thing:
Once you have it, you don’t wanna lose it. It is highly addictive, but don’t let it get too powerful otherwise you will become an individual asshole.
Self-love is something I am still working on, but if I will look back from who I was before, I can say I love myself better now.
For me self love was getting rid of Facebook and replacing it with journaling. If your time is precious and you feel you are short on time and you have trouble not comparing yourself to others get rid of your social media. You will not regret it.
Why do i always think i love myself but i also think im so selfish if i'm doing something for myself 😭
I really liked the emotional healing part of the video. Because I have come to realize that we all need different things at different times in our self-love journey. Right now I am cultivating patience without being complacent. I used to think self-love was about doing and saying whatever you wanted at any given time. Got into a lot of trouble and mental health issues. But now I see it is about what we NEED. Taking care of the basics like good sleep, eating right, physical activity, hygiene... Then you get specific on other areas like being social, and trying to be a better friend/daughter/whathaveyou; working hard towards a career or job you don't hate... And finding the right balance. All of these things are important, and depending on each moment in life one thing takes priority over another. Only to me, personally, nothing will ever be above my mental and physical wellbeing ever again. If you are not okay, nothing else will be.

This is my way of self care.❤
This is very helpful to me. I'm still in the process of self care or self love. I've been giving to much to my family and others that I've forgotten how to take care of my self too. I need to go through some heartaches before I got a wake up call that self love is also important.
"your health and happiness are yours to protect and maintain; taking the steps to do so is never selfish" (2:16). . . "the way you love yourself shows others how to love you" (3:12)
Whenever i am burned out from all the school stuff and insecurities. I go to this channel. Thank you Psych to go, you've really helped me 🥰 God bless everyone who reads this ❤
Every morning, I look into the mirror and say one thing good to myself or even a poem, little odd but you do get used to it and realize it makes a difference
Ways I practice self love
-meditation
-praying
-taking some R&R long warm baths listening to my favorite songs
-sleeping in from time to time
-making TH-cam videos that I enjoy making for fun
-singing to myself in my room
-dancing by myself
-knowing when to back away from certain situations and to put my foot down
-talking to my self continuous (myself). When I’m alone in my room
This is so true for me
Loving yourself is extremely hard
Many times I just wanted to give up but then I start all over again to accept and be proud of who I am 💜
One of the best self-loving methods are stop overthinking, stop being addicted to social medias and stop bombing yourself with all sorts of negativity (horror movies, fake news, gossips, politics...).
@Zinaida Nebitno But what about those who likes horror movies? （≧∇≦）
God I was crying through the whole video. I was looking into magic and the first steps, one was about inner kid and just read "I'm proud of you." To myself made me cry uncontrollably.
I think self love is unconditional. I am on a journey to heal myself and become a better version of myself.
My mental health has deteriorated more especially since lockdown. I find your videos very helpful and a great resource for me. Thanks Pysch 2 go!
It's really hard for me to practice self-love; I specifically struggle with acknowledgment of my appearance and my achievements. Hearing you say that I matter, that it's not selfish to think about myself in a positive way..I needed that. Thank you ❤️❤️
Everyday , I hold myself with tenderness and high regard.
Tenderness and High Regard.
Bless our hearts!
I remember in the past, I've hated myself. I learned to help my needs, which made me feel better about myself. today, I think I look beautiful, and I love my life. I'm making sure to self talk positive. I compliment myself too! like: "wow...I just made something really good!" and It's helping my motivation alot. It's basically why I posted 4 animations in a day, lol
“The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.”
Derek Walcott - “Love After Love”
I need to watch this a trillion million times. Thank you so much! I needed this video. At the end of July 2020, I started trying to combat my self-hatred, realizing that self-love isn't a bad thing, like I always thought it was for nearly 19 years.
Just be proud of yourself, your past, your present and what you want to do with your future. You know how good you are by practicing what you preach. Self love regularly. No I mean ... You know what I mean. 🤪🥰
6:16 ( Self love isn't always fun)
Thank You for telling this and it also hit me very hard because i always time hate myself it takes longer to realize that i hate myself . I always thought that self love is always fun because of that i don't do hard work and always criticize myself . Now i found that self-love is always not fun
Thank you
Just got outta a relationship and doing loads of things of self love 💖 for myself 😜 I’ve got to find out about who I am so I’m finding out who I am 🤩🥳🥰😘
Give yourself patience, understanding, forgiveness, exceteptence and give yourself a chance by crediting the progress you've been through and the progress you will achieve. Take 💅😘
Wow, repeating to myself “My health and happiness are my own responsibility” hit a little hard this morning
Today i felt grumpy lonely sad and unloved, i never felt it at this magnitude. I don't know how got there but I'm glad I'm better now that I'm going to bed, cos nonody deserves to feel like that when going to bed.
I'm really having a hard time loving myself and I'm really grateful for your videos for letting me know all of this. Soon when I finally learned how to appreciate myself more, I'll go back to this comment and let you know. Love lots, fighting! xoxo
Say 10 gratitudes before you get out of bed in the morning.
Start saying positive affirmations to yourself throughout the day. (can write them down too)
Remember to let your thoughts flow, do not dwell on any topic.
I recommend getting the apps “I am” and “Motivation”. They send you daily notifications of quotes and affirmations. ♥️♥️
Thanks you! Unluckily, there is a problem for me. Every time I try loving myself, I am stopped by the thought that I don`t deserve this. It is so irritating and hard to overcome.....
It is my understanding that you must love yourself and be able to set healthy boundaries in order to be in a healthy relationship. It is also my understanding that you cannot force someone to love you. If both of these ideas are true. I don't love myself, due to abuse, abandonment, and depression issues. I don't believe it's possible to force myself to love myself any more than it's possible to force someone to love you. I think this logic is solid. If I I can't force me to love someone else, it doesn't seem logical that I can force me to love me. All the suggestions in this video seem absurd to me. I can't imagine a world where I would do any of them. If you are forced to take care of yourself that seems like a strong indicator that no one loves you enough to help you care for yourself. This is the world I live in. So far I have been unable to find anyone who can refute my logic. I suspect that is because it not possible to refute the logic. If anyone has any ideas it may keep from becoming a statistic.
Starting this self love journey has been the most difficult thing I've ever had to do. I am putting myself in a position to actually convince myself that I am worthy love and that its possible to love me for who and what I am. My days are exactly as what was stated in this video......I still have so far to go to even see the beginning phases of this, albeit my therapist says otherwise.
I'm not giving up(so says on one of my up days 😌) and every day I find something about myself that makes me want to build and improve upon. I am thankful for channels such as this and the positive side of yt, because I have to do this alone(no friends, no family) and the weight of it at times feel heart numbingly despairing, however I am someone to love and even if no one else does, I will. Day by day and hour by hour, I truly believe that its worth it, because regardless of what I was brainwashed to believe, I am worth it.....my apologies for the long post. Thank you for this amazing content. Please continue as long as you are able
day by day I'm falling deeper in love with myself & i must admit half of its credit goes to you psych2go family...i watch your videos, go through the comments & really feel surrounded by people just like me... I think I'm healing a lot now than before ❤️
Wow, that's so inspiring! What are some things that you've noticed a difference in, compared to before?
@@almalindqvist7466 I had low self esteem..actually I'm still dealing with it, there’s some past incidents holding me back & making me numb while i found this wonderful channel I'm feeling less lonely. It seems to me that there’s a lot of people who deal with same pain like me & we must not be defeated just because we're different doesn’t mean we're weak .. I may not sound clear but this community is really helping me to heal & fight for my goal ❤️
self love is forgiving yourself for things you can't change and working on commitments day after day even if you feel drained
