Ways to honour yourself

1. Write a new mission statement
   loving ourselves can be a new mission statement for some of us, and we all learn best when the topic we are dealing with is presented to us in a plain language.

   Craft a self-nurturing statement for your life. The statement should put forth the intention and vision for a fulfilling life in which honouring yourself is a key. Your mission statement might look like this: "I am a beautiful person, and I have so much to share with the world. Honouring myself and my needs is my first priority. My life is enhanced daily by simple acts of self-nurturing, and my world is in balance. I have excellent boundaries, and I wake up each morning with a deep sense of self-love, self-esteem, and the knowledge that I deserve good things in my life. It is my birthright to be happy, successful, and loved".

2. Open your heart
   We may say we want love, success, and happiness, but we don't always back up our dreams with self-honouring actions. Without self-love, we have no foundation to uphold or contain love, self-esteem, and true potential. Someone can love you with more heart than you ever imagined, but where will it go if you have no internal mechanism for recognizing pure love? The universe can shower you with opportunities, but you will miss the best plums on the tree because you won't think you deserve to reach for them.
   

   Your action Step:

   Take 10 to 20 minutes every morning to meditate to a piece of song that feels heart-opening to you. Many people love original Indian chants and old love songs, such as Bryan Adams music.

3. Email yourself love note
   

   Send yourself an email every day (for at least 30 days) with a new message of encouragement and love. Think it's goofy? Think again. If you were falling in love with another person, how would you feel if he or she emailed you some loving words of encouragement every day, just because they care? You would feel high on life, happy, whole, and thrilled. You would feel like something magical is happening. You would be uplifted and empowered because someone had chosen you and was honouring you by constantly letting you know how they feel about you. In this case, you are creating all the same feelings--by yourself, for yourself.

   Your action step:

   You can write anything you choose. Some examples to get you started: Tell yourself how beautiful you looked today; give yourself laurels for any job well done; thank yourself for all the good things you do for others in a day; write yourself a romantic note extolling the virtues of...you!

4. Eat healthily….and with joy!
   

   We all know by now that certain foods, chemicals, and substances like alcohol can work against us in all areas of life. It is time to truly acknowledge that your body is your temple and treat it as sacred. If you are having any kind of imbalance or dis-ease--depression, illness, self-hating blues--see if you can find an external "chemical" cause for it. Start with what you are eating. Then look at what you are drinking, as well as chemicals you are taking in. For example, sugar, wheat, yeast, processed foods, certain carbs, and alcohol can all add together to make an I-Don't-Feel-Great stew and a grumpy you.

   Your Action Step:

   There are many things we can do to lighten up and alleviate the cause and effect of the things that may make us cranky, ill, and feeling hopeless--which can all add to lack of self-love and self-esteem. Experiment with eliminating different potential trigger substances from your life. Delete things from your general diet that cause you to turn on yourself. Make a choice to find out what foods empower your well-being--perhaps more fruits and veggies, or your body might need more lean meat to keep your head clear--and add in the things that help you feel great.
