"I love myself" and other Self-Love Affirmations

One of the things I like to do each day - preferably in the morning - is to listen to positive affirmations. Lately I have been listening to "Positive Morning Affirmations" by Leeor Alexandra. When I wake up, I put on my headphones and listen to it while I get ready and do my yoga practice. This inspired me to write some self-love affirmations down, to read and say it out loud to myself. Our words are a powerful tool and by repeatedly saying loving things to yourself, you are reprogramming your subconscious mind to work in your favor and as a result you will experience more love in your life. So here are few self-love affirmations for you to read, write, and/or speak:

• I love myself

• I am so loveable and so loved

• I accept myself exactly as I am now

• I am enough, I have enough and I do enough

• I love myself fully and unconditionally

• I radiate love from within

• I am at peace with where I am

• I am beautiful inside and out

• I accept all of me with love

• I am worthy of love; all parts of me are worthy of love

• I am bountiful, I am beautiful, I am bliss

• I am love and I am light

• I am a being of love

• I am fully open to receive love

• I am a radiantly beatiful cosmic miracle

• I care for my body, mind and soul

• I receive love from those around me

• I am constantly growing, evolving and becoming my best self

• I am powerful, beautiful and strong

• I am divinely blessed, loved and supported

• I am the embodiment of unconditional love

• Love flows to me, through me, and from me

• I accept myself just the way that I am

• I feel comfortable within

• I see my own beauty and grace

• I honour and respect myself

• I love myself more each day

• I am full of positive radiant warmth

• I allow myself to be fully and wonderfully me

• I am worthy of deep, meaningful love

• I am filled with gratitude for who I am

• I am worthy of my desires

• I have unique talents that the world needs

• I am proud of myself for all that I have accomplished

• I believe in myself

• I deeply love and appreciate myself just as I am

And so it is.

I encourage you to read these affirmations and to say them out loud, preferably while looking at yourself / into your eyes in the mirror. You can also record yourself saying these affirmations and listen to them later (and I might possibly make this for you as well!). Or you can find some good ones on YouTube or Spotify. Just search for 'self-love affirmations' or 'positive affirmations'.

The other, even more powerful, thing you could do is to write your own self-love affirmations. Perhaps you have already set an intention for this month, or year and you can relate your affirmations to your personal intention. Ask yourself what you would love to hear someone else say to you, what you would love to feel and believe, and write down the answers as ("I am") affirmations. If you find it difficult to do this, you can also think of someone else you love, someone you care for, and write down what you would say to them, but use the words "I am" instead of "you are".

Let's use our voices and our words to create something beautiful and powerful!
