C’mon in! It’s week 1 of 4 in Love like a Carnivalista and the topic – Self love is selfish? Nope. Loving yourself isn’t wrong (and here’s why).
This is a 2 part series. Today I’ll cover why self love is important (spoiler alert: I will get personal) and 1 myth. Next week’s video will cover 2 more myths
Myth #1:
Self love means neglecting others
- This myth really gets me going! Why is it as women, when we think of doing something only for us, we’re immediately told it’s selfish?
- As I mentioned in the video, the definitions of self love and selfish are completely different. These 2 definitions are also not meshed together for men as they are for women.
- Here’s the truth: Loving yourself does not mean you’re neglecting others.
- Nurturing your well-being and happiness does not mean you’re selfish! Say it with me!
- When you love your self, it allows for better upport and care of others. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “You cannot pour from an empty cup.” I like to say, “Loving yourself gives you more abundance to love others.”
- When you love your self, you:
- Set healthier boundaries
- Have better relationships/situations that don’t exploit or harm you
- The benefits of this go on and on!
