Buy Yourself The Damn Flowers Special – Tam Kaur

4. Daily habits If your lifestyle doesn’t allow for those weekly rituals, start with allocating time to the most important things. A simple shift from waking up right before you need to leave and rushing out the door to waking up just 10 minutes earlier to start your day on your own terms reinforces a lifestyle where you put your happiness and needs first.

5. Build patience This is achieved by practising discipline in all other areas of your life. How you do one thing is how you do everything. If you show up in your goal of learning a new language with 50 per cent effort and inconsistency in practising each module, you are less equipped with resilience when self- love gets hard. Getting comfy with discomfort is the only way to master discipline – for example, going to the gym at 7am even when it’s cold and rainy, introducing yourself in rooms that intimidate you and trying to do something that doesn’t come naturally on a consistent basis grows courage.

You build up your tolerance to discomfort so that the obstacles that once would have made you quit now feel like another regular step in the journey. This was just a brief overview of the foundational actions you can start implementing to begin your self-love journey. In embarking on this journey you are bound to make mistakes, but every single step is a valuable chance to practise your self-love.

Feeling bad when you mess up is pointless because failures are a crucial part of the self-love journey. You can’t develop unconditional self-love without the bad days, so welcome them with open arms and shift your mindset away from ‘I can’t believe I did that’ to ‘what can this teach me and how can it help me grow the relationship I have with myself?’. Release your fear of not being able to keep up your new routine and accept the possibility that you will fail.
