Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, Jessica Laine here and welcome back to that
Speaker 1: girl energy morning routine affirmations. You know, life can get
Speaker 1: pretty hectic right between work, relationships, social media. It's easy
Speaker 1: to feel like you're constantly running around putting everyone else's
Speaker 1: needs first. But guess what, Before you can truly show
Speaker 1: up for others, you got to show up for yourself.
Speaker 1: And that, my friends, is exactly what we're talking about today.
Speaker 1: Loving yourself first ever felt like a deflated balloon, just
Speaker 1: barely holding it together. You know that feeling when you're
Speaker 1: constantly giving but never getting anything in return. That's your
Speaker 1: inner voice screaming for some self love. Now. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying you need to turn into a narcissistic diva, although
Speaker 1: a little me time is always a good thing, but
Speaker 1: genuine self love means prioritizing your own well being, setting boundaries,
Speaker 1: and nurturing your own growth. It's about recognizing your worth,
Speaker 1: embracing your strength, and accepting your imperfections. So how do
Speaker 1: you actually put this into practice? Well, let's dive into
Speaker 1: five key takeaways that will help you cultivate a little
Speaker 1: more self love magic in your life. First things first,
Speaker 1: know your worth. This doesn't mean demanding the world from
Speaker 1: everyone around you. It's about recognizing your inherent value as
Speaker 1: a human being. You deserve respect, kindness, and love, both
Speaker 1: from yourself and others. Think of it like this. You
Speaker 1: wouldn't give away your most prized possession for free, right,
Speaker 1: So why would you settle for anything less than what
Speaker 1: you truly deserve in life and relationships? Next up, set boundaries.
Speaker 1: This is where the magic really happens. Boundaries are your
Speaker 1: non negotiables, the things that define your limits and protect
Speaker 1: your energy. They're not about being selfish, They're about creating
Speaker 1: a healthy space for yourself to thrive. Think of it
Speaker 1: like this. Imagine your life as a beautiful garden. You
Speaker 1: wouldn't just let it anyone trample through your flowers, would you.
Speaker 1: You'd carefully tend to them, create pathways and ensure only
Speaker 1: the best blooms can flourish. Boundaries are those pathways. They
Speaker 1: help guide people on how to interact with you respectfully
Speaker 1: and allow you to focus on cultivating your own inner garden. Third,
Speaker 1: practice self care. This isn't just about bubble bads and
Speaker 1: face masks, although those are lovely. It's about making conscious
Speaker 1: choices that nourish your mind, body, and soul. It could
Speaker 1: be anything from taking a walk in nature, reading a
Speaker 1: good book, spending time with loved ones, or simply dedicating
Speaker 1: some time to quiet reflection. Think of self care as
Speaker 1: refueling your inner tank. Just like a car needs gas
Speaker 1: to run, you need regular doses of replenishment to keep going.
Speaker 1: So what activities truly fill you up? Make them a priority.
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about embracing imperfection. You're not meant to
Speaker 1: be perfect, nobody is. In fact, it's hard imperfections that
Speaker 1: may make us unique and beautiful. So instead of striving
Speaker 1: for an unattainable ideal, focus on embracing your quirks, learning
Speaker 1: from your mistakes, and celebrating your progress. Remember it's not
Speaker 1: about being flawless, it's about being authentically you finally, cultivate gratitude.
Speaker 1: Take a moment each day to appreciate the good things
Speaker 1: in your life, big or small. A sunny morning, a
Speaker 1: delicious cup of coffee, a kind word from a stranger.
Speaker 1: These little moments of joy can make a huge difference
Speaker 1: in your overall well being and help shift your focus
Speaker 1: towards positivity. Now imagine this, You're walking down the street,
Speaker 1: head held high, feeling confident and empowered. People notice your energy.
Speaker 1: They see the genuine smile on your face, the sparkle
Speaker 1: in your eyes. That's the power of self love. It
Speaker 1: radiates outwards, attracting positive experiences and people into your life.
Speaker 1: So how can you start putting this into practice today?
Speaker 1: Remember those boundaries we talked about. Think of one area
Speaker 1: in your life where you need to set a firmer limit.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's work, social media, or even a relationship. Start
Speaker 1: by saying no to something that doesn't serve you. You deserve
Speaker 1: to prioritize your own well being, and setting boundaries is
Speaker 1: a powerful way to do just that. And don't forget
Speaker 1: to practice self care. Take a few minutes to do
Speaker 1: something that brings you joy, whether it's listening to your
Speaker 1: favorite music, taking a walk in nature, or simply curling
Speaker 1: up with a good book. Even small acts of self
Speaker 1: love can make a big difference in your day. Okay,
