The Power of Loving Yourself

No, I’m not talking about that!  Although, that can be powerful too. I’m talking about loving the essence of who you are. You at your best…or not. Sure, we can (and will) always evolve and strive to be better. And that’s important, too. But how about loving the whole package, right now? Not when you’re more patient. Not when you lose 20 pounds. Not “someday”. But right now!  It’s not about loving the good and ignoring the rest, but rather loving all the parts that make up who you are. If we are all here to learn anyway, maybe it’s okay that we don’t always have all the answers. Maybe fumbling through is part of the adventure. So why are we so quick to hide our flaws and cover up our issues? It’s not like anyone here is perfect. Just another soul muddling through, trying to figure it all out.

I can’t stop wondering how many of my own mistakes, failures and life lessons were overshadowed by my commitment to keep them on the down low.  And how powerful it could be if I were to funnel my energy into allowing those “opportunities” to contribute to me, rather than embarrass me. Maybe the most honest way to improve our relationships is to begin with our self. Isn’t it time to own who you are, the great, the not so great, and all the stuff in between? When we can learn to accept our own imperfections, then maybe we can be more accepting of others, including our partners.

A Valentine Thought to Ponder…

With Valentine’s Day (Saturday, Feb 14th) just around the bend, now is as good a time as any to check in and evaluate your relationship. Some of us do this regularly, while others avoid it like the plague, opting for the ole “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” theory.  Truth is…it’s all just an opportunity for growth and ultimately more closeness and connection.  So which one do you choose?  It usually comes down to this, do you want to grow your patnership into an extarordinary relationship, or are you satisfied keeping it as is?  There is no “right answer” in this, only choice.

If you choose Door #1, good for you.  This is, after all your most significant relationship.  If you choose door #2, that’s okay, but forfeit your right to complain about your partner and your relationship.  Choose it as is and embrace it.  This V-Day, I invite you to celebrate a soulful connection rooted in adoration, appreciation and respect.  Vow to never celebrate it as just another “Hallmark holiday”, but
rather an opportunity to recognize just how lucky you are to have each other and how best to express and maintain that gratitude.

I have a special offer to help you celebrate this holiday of love and to support your commitment to creating the most amazing relationship possible.  Sign up for my Personal Power coaching, or Relationship coaching and receive a Hypnosis Cd of your choice as a special gift.  See your Cd options at http://www.hypnotica-love.com/?page=webstore
