Ever wonder why some people seem to attract all the good vibes in relationships? It’s not magic, it’s about how they treat themselves. Rupi Kaur, a poet who knows a thing or two about love, says it perfectly: “How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you.”
If you’re constantly putting yourself down or feeling like you’re not good enough, that’s the message you’re sending out to others.
It’s like saying, “Hey, I don’t think I’m worth much, so you shouldn’t either.”
But when you love and respect yourself – when you take care of your body, mind, and emotions – you’re showing the world (and yourself!) that you deserve to be treated with love and kindness. And guess what? Others pick up on that vibe. They’ll naturally want to treat you the way you treat yourself.
So, how do you start loving yourself more?
It’s a journey, not a destination. It could mean practicing positive self-talk, setting healthy boundaries, or simply doing things that make you feel good.
Remember, loving yourself isn’t selfish. It’s the foundation for building healthy, happy relationships with others. So, be kind to yourself, forgive your mistakes, and celebrate your strengths. When you do, you’ll be amazed at how the world responds.
