Today's challenge: Find 10 ways to tell yourself that you love yo'self.

Self-love starts with a little sprinkle of self-kindness!

Here are some ideas to get the self love juices flowing:

  • Slide in front of the mirror and dramatically say "I love you!" Make a statement!
  • Learn how to say "I love you" in other languages and repeat to yourself
  • Celebrate small personal victories of the day
  • Take a dance break!
  • Tell yourself I AM {insert any positive word}
  • Wrap your arms around and hug yourself while smiling
  • Take a mental health break for a few minutes before rushing into your next task
  • As much as you may have to dig, give yourself one compliment. Out loud!
  • LAUGH FOR NO REASON
  • Do something nourishing for you: drink lots of water, exercise, sleep in a few minutes, soak in a bubble bath, delight in chocolate
  • Hum yourself a sweet lullaby
  • Write your name in the sand
  • Attend to your needs
  • Pat yourself on the back
  • Take 10 slow conscious breaths with your hands on your heart
  • ....and a personal favorite of mine - listen to a love song and redirect the loving bubbly feelings towards YOU.

Love yo' most beautiful self!

I'll be here practicing the same.
