Online-Self-Love: The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Registrations are closed for this event

People-pleasing is a losing battle. When you focus on self-love and self-compassion rather than trying to get others to love you, you build your self-esteem, your own resiliency and break codependent patterns so you can form healthier, happier relationships—with yourself and others.

For various reasons, many of us find it easier to love others than to love ourselves. Sometimes we’re truly quite awful to ourselves. We subject ourselves to a harsh inner critic, unhealthy relationships, toxic substances, and self-mutilation. I know how easy it is to dwell on your own perceived inadequacies.

But regardless of the reasons for your lack of self-love, this Take Your Oxygen First Valentines Month Session will remind you how caring for yourself and treating yourself with the same love that you give to others dramatically changes our experience to give care and the World around us.
