Self-Love Is More Than Bubble Baths

Social media and popular psychology have skewed the way we think about self-love. It is more complex than simply relaxing or taking time for yourself. Self-love is the purest form of positive regard you have for yourself. Our relationships with ourselves are made up of both how we talk to and care for ourselves. In this episode, Emil discusses the many facets of self-love and how to obtain it.

Building Self-Love

1)      Gain self- awareness (know the many parts of you and what you need)

2)      Take charge. The “self” must take charge in meeting needs.

3)      Be consistent in identifying and meeting your needs. This builds confidence and self-respect, which leads to self-love.
