Publisher's Synopsis
"Unconditional Self-Love" teaches you how to love yourself unconditionally by transforming how you feel and how you see yourself in 4 steps: becoming more self-aware, getting to know yourself, standing up for yourself, and empowering yourself.
Becoming self-aware helps you see exactly what is causing you to feel how you feel. We bring into our conscious awareness what was previously unconscious or subconscious as we become aware of beliefs that we carry, coping mechanisms to avoid facing ourselves, ways we are constantly re-enforcing the negative and limiting beliefs, and external influences. Once we are aware of these influences we can do something about them. Then we get to know the person we want to love. How many of us go through life focused on meeting the expectations of others rather than being our authentic self? How many of us never actually take the time to get to know who our authentic self truly is? We can easily get stuck being and doing what will please others, help us fit in, or validate our ego, while suppressing our true self, making it impossible to love someone we don't even know. Standing up for yourself is about no longer allowing yourself to be put down or made small, while empowering yourself is about stepping beyond your self-imposed limitations and taking up more of the space in this realm that is meant for you. This book dives into the most important aspects of your self-identity to help you heal on the deepest levels and build you up from a strong solid foundation. This book guides you through the steps you need to be able to truly know, respect and unconditionally love yourself.
