Tuesday - Tutorial

Today's tutorial is a bit different than the ones I've had in the past.  Today I'm going to give a short tutorial on how to Love Yourself.  Yesterday was Valentines Day and most people spend the day expressing their love to others.  Today we'll spend expressing love to ourselves...after all, we're all we've got!

  1. Every time you look in the mirror, look yourself straight in the eyes and repeat these words."I love you, just the way you are."  It may feel funny at first, but say it anyway.
  2. Smile for at least 30 seconds.  It can actually change the way you feel.  I am a very happy person, but sometimes I forget to tell my face!
  3. Listen to beautiful music.
  4. No matter where you live, go outside and take just 5 minutes to look at nature...what beautiful, natural surroundings can you enjoy?
  5. Remember, you are of infinite worth, created in the image of God, of divine heritage.  It doesn't get any better than that! 
  6. Think good thoughts.  Even make a list of the things you do well.
  7. No negative comments about yourself.  Often we spend a lot of time and energy degrading ourselves.  Instead follow #6.
What other things  do you do that help increase your awareness of how valuable you are?
