Building a healthy relationship with yourself

Building a healthy relationship with yourself

By Miss Kes 

Celebrating yourself and your achievements is significant to self-actualization. When you activate the love within, you are able to see both your attributes and your flaws.

Below are five great ways to celebrate yourself:

1. Look at yourself in the mirror and speak beautiful words to yourself. Tell yourself that you are great and deserve to be rewarded.

2.  Speak greatly about yourself to others. It is not pride, it is celebrating yourself and your achievements.

3.  Take yourself on a date. Sounds crazy? It is not. It is actually extremely powerful when you can be in your own company and have a great time by yourself.

4.  Take yourself on a vacation. You work hard, don’t you? Ensure that you reward yourself at every opportunity you get.

5.  Capture every moment of your life by writing journals or taking pictures. Remember that life is about creating memories so ensure you capture great ones with those you love and those who love you.

Life is about creating moments to cherish forever, and below some women share how they celebrate life.

Kandace:

I meditate in the mornings before anything else. I avoid looking on my phone. After that, I exercise and prepare my breakfast and I will listen to positive messages while I drive to work. I avoid talking on my phone as much as I can because I need a clear mind to begin my day.

MK:

I invest my time in listening to positive messages to keep my mind sound. I also avoid negative company. That keeps me sane.

KC:

I eat healthy, choose friends wisely, and attend a good church. That is my secret to a fulfilled life.
