Who are You to Yourself?

In the Book of Numbers you will read, “In that day there were giants in the land; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers. And we were in their sight as grasshoppers.” This doesn’t mean a time in the past when man had the stature of giants. It means that if today your conditions seem to have attained the appearance of giants (such as unemployment, loneliness and all other things that seem to threaten you) those are the giants that make you feel yourself to be a grasshopper. But you are told in the Verse, you were first, in your own sight a grasshopper and because of this you were to the giants, a grasshopper. In other words, you can only be to others what you are first to yourself. If you believe that your problems are gigantic to you, then that is exactly how you will experience them. If you believe that you are a giant to your problems, they will metaphysically take on the sense of grasshoppers.

There is also more to experience than what you believe yourself to be. Sometimes you could religiously believe to be something, but if there’s any part of you that is in conflict with your belief, you will not project the belief in its virgin sense.

So, during this “worldly” season of love, aka Valentines, if you are searching for love , love yourself abundantly, be a loving nonjudgmental person to yourself, and the same will be reflected in your experiences. Go further into identifying all negative beliefs you have about your identity, and find a way to release them from your subconscious. Take your permission back from whatever negative prompters you gave it to–to manifest as loneliness or loveless-ness. Release the need for love and instead feel the love that you are already are. Love yourself to the extent of being 100% honest with yourself. Identify what you need to let go, who you need to forgive, the guilt you have to release, and everything else that doesn’t represent the presence of God, the presence of good, within you.

If you want to take it a notch further, get this BOOK and command your God-sense to set you free from all bondage.

Do You Really Love Yourself?

“Do you really love yourself?” asked my mother a few months ago. “Of course I do. How can you even ask such a question?” I responded. However, while alone I re-evaluated her question. Did I really truly love myself?

She asked me that question because I was complaining about a racism experience I had gone through. She urged me to focus on what was important…myself. But I didn’t really get it. I felt the need to blame the people who had racially harassed me. I felt entitled to continue pointing out the wrong they had done. And although what they had done wasn’t positive, I was doing more harm to myself. I was so focused on what was wrong, what had happened in the past and how bad these people had been to me. I put my attention on what hadn’t worked and continued to re-live it even when it had happened in the past. I hurt every day. I was literally carrying emotional baggage that was weighing me down. It struck me then that I wasn’t loving myself.

So, what negative experiences/stories are you carrying around? Are you 100% focused on yourself, or you are so busy focusing on your past ? What do you focus on most of the day? What do you think about? Are your thoughts energizing or weakening? When is the last time you did something good for yourself without feeling guilty? And I am not referring to doing something nice to your car or house, impressing your boss or loved ones.

I am referring to more intimate things such as, taking a nap, listening to your favorite music without doing anything else, stretching, doing yoga, eating right, drinking 8 glasses of water daily, meditating, going for a walk, going for a random ride, closing your eyes and doing nothing, forgiving yourself and others, having a long bath, taking time to scrub your body with a beautiful body scrub (whether you are man or woman), reading a self-help book, focusing on finding out who is the one behind those beautiful eyes of yours.

Do you really love yourself? What do you allow into your mind? Who do you allow into your space? What are your inner conversations about yourself? How do you feel about yourself?

Don’t wait for Valentine’s day to love yourself, express this love to others or long to attract love. When you love yourself unconditionally and consistently, you never have to search or expect others to love you. You will know once and for all that you are enough. And most importantly, with unconditional self-love you will project the same in your experiences.

The Love Day: The 5 Steps to Achieving Absolute Self-love:

 

Apparently, according to our social structures, love day is a day away. Interesting, right?  Does this imply that the remaining 364 days are hate days? What happens during these days? Are we supposed to save our love-related behavioral traits for 2/14? Are we expected to restrict our hearts for feeling love and doing things that reflect that, just to save the cream for the Love Day Theme? What are we supposed to do during the Hate Days?

In my opinion, we’ve mastered the attitudes and actions to take during the 364 Hate Days. We kill, conflict, prepare for war, steal, spam, trick, and do all the hate related activities around the clock. It is funny-because even on Valentine’s Day, a day that humanity has saved for love, we still do hateful things.

The next question then is; what can we do to feel and practice love 24/7, 365.5 days a year…every time, all the time? With all the negativity going around like a dangerous flu, how do we survive hate for ourselves, others and everything in our environment?

To achieve this, I have put together a 5 step proven process that will help one not only heal from self-hate and self-sabotage, but also help them achieve sustainable love for themselves and others.            

Step 1: Acknowledge that the greatest love of all is loving yourself. We all have to remember that our experiences are determined by our internal dialogues. Whatever we feel inside, is what we offer to the world. When you have absolute love for the self, this is exactly what you radiate to the world.

2.  Take 100% responsibility of your emotional baggage

This will help you initiate and succeed at the forgiveness process. When you realize that no one owes you anything, and that you owe yourself the focus and related actions to heal your life, then, and only then, can you gain back your self-power. 

3. Build sustainable self-standards.

This is self explanatory.  Set standards below which you won’t serve, receive, give, experience or relate. We have to remember that we are the navigation systems of our lives.

4. Nourish your spiritual being.

You can do this through meditation, prayer or whatever else your spiritual/religious preferences advocate for in order to maintain a sense of peace and faith in a higher power within you.

5.  Accept change as part of evolution.

This will help one maintain unconditional self-love regardless of external occurrences. No change or event will derail one’s high regard or love for themselves if they understand that change is part of progress.

Happy Love day; and I hope this positively shifts you or someone you know.
