Hey there,

In the fast-paced world we live in, stress has become an all too common companion. We often search for external solutions to alleviate our stress, but the truth is that the ultimate antidote lies within us. Self-love, when practiced intentionally and consistently, can be a powerful tool to combat stress and bring peace and harmony into our lives.

An often forgotten part of self-love is to acknowledge the layers of self-criticism and negative emotions that we can carry within us. These big emotions, like anger, sadness, fear, hurt, and guilt, can put up barriers and hold us back from even thinking about self-love. By flipping our viewpoint on focussing on self-love, rather than all the things that are not going well in our lives, we can unlock a little known transformative power and create a life filled with happiness and fulfillment.

Recognizing the Influence of Negative Emotions

Negative emotions, born from past experiences and self-criticism, can cast shadows on our ability to love and accept ourselves fully. They have the power to anchor us to our past, limiting our growth and sabotaging our self-worth. Recognizing and addressing these emotions is a crucial step towards nurturing self-love.

Strategies for Shedding Negative Emotions

1. Acknowledge and Accept Your Emotions: Begin by acknowledging the presence of negative emotions within yourself. Accept that it is natural to experience anger, sadness, fear, hurt, and guilt. Allow yourself to feel these emotions without judgment or resistance.  The key here is to allow the emotion to move through you, rather than hang onto that old thought. In the world of Psychology, it is known that most negative emotions are designed to last only 90 seconds!  Think of an emotion as Energy in Motion - feel the energy of it and then let it pass.
2. Practice Self-Compassion and Forgiveness: Show yourself compassion for carrying these emotions. Understand that they are a part of your human experience. Practice self-forgiveness, releasing any self-blame or guilt associated with them. Embrace the understanding that you deserve love and forgiveness, just as much as anyone else.
3. Get Support: Reach out to trusted friends, family, or professionals who can offer support and guidance in your journey towards self-love. Sometimes, discussing these emotions with someone who cares can help in gaining perspective.  As a Master NeuroLinguistics Practitioner, I help people to release the burden of carrying old emotions, so they can move forwards and not get stuck in old negativity. 
4. Release Through Emotional Expression: Engage in activities that allow you to express and release these emotions. Write in a journal, create art, or take up a movement-based practice like dance, yoga or even boxing! Find healthy outlets that enable you to express and/or process your emotions.
5. Nurture a Positive Self-Image: Negative self-talk can easily undermine your best efforts to create an environment of self-love, so it’s important to have an awareness of what you are saying or thinking about yourself.  Nip this in the bud and start by coming up with supportive self-talk.  Focus on the things that you like rather than the things that you don't like.  You can retrain your brain to get out of the habit of being negative about yourself by challenging and reframing negative self-talk and beliefs. Focus on your strengths and your unique qualities.

Embrace the Journey of Self-Love

Incorporating these strategies helps in shedding the layers of negative emotions and self-criticism that hold us back. It’s a transformative journey of healing and self-discovery. By acknowledging, accepting, and releasing these emotions, we clear the path towards deep self-love, compassion, and acceptance.
