So, while I’m talking about attracting positive energy, self-love is so important. If you don’t love yourself and accept yourself for who you are now and who you’re working to become, then you can’t extend that grace to others. It’s not an easy task, so here is an exercise that you can use to try to be mindful of yourself.

Over the next few weeks, choose one self-loving mantra and aim to incorporate it into your daily routine. Focus on one mantra each week, ideally practicing it when you wake up each day. Of course, if you don’t feel like one is providing you any benefits, feel free to switch up your daily affirmations or mantras. You will find that some of them are more fitting to your needs and personality, as your internal dialogue is unique to you. If you find something that works for you, it should only be a matter of days before you start feeling more confident and loved.
