How to Nurture Self
It can be hard to carve out the time to
nurture ourselves, even as we understand the importance of doing so.
The busier we are, like during the holidays, the harder it can be to
make that commitment to our self. During this season we rush, do,
prepare, and aim for perfection – all are additions to our normally
busy lives. Yes, even during the holiday season, we should be giving
ourselves the gift of nurturing.
Nurturing
Inspiration
Take a few deep breathes and
imagine this scene play out. It is an invitation to remember to
embrace you and incorporate self-nurturing more often.
A
powerful rain cleansed the earth of all residue. Perfect timing
after the potent transformational energies this year.
For
three days, it rained and rained. It was a cleansing rain.
The air is clearer now, much clearer than before. It enables an
easier way to think, know, and be.
It brings profound clarity
of how I truly love myself.
I mean really love myself - above
all things and people.
I am my own first and last love.
This clarity sinks in deep. So deep that it is time to relax
and allow the love for myself to fully wash over and fill me. Now,
it can flow outwards to others. This marks a fuller transformation
of my higher self to pure, unconditional love.
Find Your Nurturing Clarity
Your expression of
clarity and self-nurturing may look different than this. That’s
perfectly okay and part of the process of your creative nature and
journey. At the center, it is important to be open to your
experience, messages, and energies as they present.
The
process may take time to build towards, but these steps will help
you find your way.
1. Totally relax with yourself. Soften
your body. Quiet your mind. Really allow yourself to relax deep
inside of you.
2. Allow yourself to prune what is limiting
you. Nothing but greatness is allowed in this exercise. Prune any
limitations, especially self-imposed limitations, as they rise into
your awareness to transform and release.
3. Nourish what is
left. Pay attention to what was neglected in the past, especially
your self-esteem, self-worth, self-empowerment, self-love, and
self-respect. Nurture your ongoing embodiment of each of these.
4. Create powerful self-affirmations to help all parts of you
understand and embrace the nurturing that is needed. Examples: I am
great and I am so worthy. I am fabulous just as I am. I now really
believe this and know it.
5. Make a commitment to future
self-nurturing and honor it. You are divine and SO worthy of it.
Whether you embrace this exercise as a centering practice, for
calming during stressful times, or to express the love of really
nurturing yourself – I hope that it speaks to you, and you use it as
part of your spiritual practice.
As we travel the year ahead,
it will be important to take the time to nurture and be kind to
yourself. I hope I have refocused you on loving and nurturing you!
Happy Holidays to you and your family.
