Merriam Webster dictionary defines self love as "an appreciation of one's own worth or virtue" or "proper regard for and attention to one's own happiness or well-being."

Self love is a journey that one must take on their own. But there are resources out here to guide us along. Just like any journey, one may need a map, and this map might not always take you through the easiest route. Also self love may not be an area one may realize they are even lacking in.

Do you struggle with loneliness?

Do you find yourself seeking validation from a partner or other outside sources?

Do you find yourself feeling down with no real reason at all?

Then you my friend, may need to begin developing self-love within.

Personally, I did not realize this was an area I was lacking in until I was faced with the hard facts. When you develop the self-love that you need within, you develop the confidence, the happiness and all of the other positive benefits that come with it. I am not a pro in this area, but I have come along away and would love to share this journey with others.

So come along!
