Self-love in action

Self-love has become a hotly debated topic in recent years. Many people stress the importance of loving yourself in order to live a happy and fulfilling life. But is self-love alone the solution to all of our problems?

First of all, self-love can look different for everyone. For one, it may mean taking time for yourself and considering your needs, while for another, it may mean accepting yourself as you are, with all your faults and weaknesses.


How do we actually define self-love?

Self-love can be defined in many ways, but fundamentally, it describes the ability to accept, value, and love yourself. This means accepting yourself as you are, including any mistakes, weaknesses, and imperfections. It also means that you recognize yourself for your strengths, talents, and achievements and value yourself.

Self-love is not self-infatuation or arrogance. The goal doesn't necessarily have to be to have a permanent sense of satisfaction or happiness with yourself. Focus more on developing a loving and accepting way with yourself, even if you don't feel perfect or successful.


What is important?

A truly balanced view of self-love also includes understanding that we not only love ourselves but also love and value others. When we love others, we feel more connected and fulfilled. We can also strengthen the relationships that matter most to us and support and encourage one another.

However, that doesn't mean that you absolutely have to achieve full self-love before you can love others. It can be a long process to love and accept yourself, and it can be difficult to achieve it all at once. However, it is important that we engage in this process and treat ourselves with love in order to be able to do the same for others.
