Quiz: What is Your Number 1 Block to Loving & Accepting Yourself?
We are often kinder, more compassionate, and loving toward others than we are to ourselves.
How can we learn to be kind to ourselves, particularly when we’re suffering or feel like we have
made a mistake? Loving and accepting all parts of ourselves is one of the greatest spiritual
challenges we may encounter. It is also necessary for living a life filled with love, abundance,
wellbeing, and outrageous joy.
Fortunately, there’s a growing body of research demonstrating that loving and accepting
ourselves and being kind and compassionate toward ourselves is essential for emotional
wellbeing. Not only does it help us avoid the inevitable consequences of harsh self-
judgment—depression, anxiety, and stress—it also changes our vibration and increases our
wellbeing and hopefulness about ourselves and the world around us. Experiencing and
extending outrageous joy is our mission, our life purpose.
It’s great that more and more people are thinking about the importance of self-love, self-
compassion, and self-acceptance. But a common oversight of people interested in changing
their vibration is failing to determine the barriers and blocks to experiencing self-love and self-
acceptance.
