Is Your Self-Love Incomplete?

Hi, welcome back to
your Daily Mindfulness.
In today's session, we're
going to talk about self-love.
This is one of those topics that a lot of
us have an intuitive sense that we might
need more of, but tend to have a complex,
complicated relationship toward achieving.
A lot of times, our idea of getting
more self-love means getting to
someplace where we can actually love
ourselves, becoming some version of
ourselves that we deem worthy of love.
But self-love that is predicated on
reaching and maintaining a certain
version of yourself is, in my
opinion, an incomplete self-love.
The real work that we're doing here is
to love yourself completely, even if
you're not yet where you want to be.
You let this well of love and acceptance
and understanding for who you are in
this moment and all the reasons you
might be where you are and not yet
where you want to be, you let that
well of love propel you to your next
stage of growth, but you don't let
it be contingent upon your growth.
That would be considered conditional
self-love and it's one slip up away from
falling into the pit of self hatred.
Meaning if we're not able to maintain
this version of ourselves that we
deem worthy of self-love and something
happens, something goes wrong, then
we're easily going to fall back
into berating ourselves, not liking
ourselves, not feeling worthy.
So as a reinforcement, and we talk
about this in a lot of these videos,
it's important to hold yourself to a
high standard, to be excited about your
growth, to see where you're at right
now and who you want to grow into.
But simultaneously make sure you're
developing this quality of, of
self-acceptance, of self-love, of
understanding and compassion towards
yourself for where you're at right now.
Because if you don't, you'll just get
to some future moment, but still feel
that inadequacy or you'll be on a
very fragile foundation for the kind
of self love that, that you think
you, you want or have developed.
But again, it won't have
a sturdy foundation.
The sturdy foundation is what
we're developing here and we'll
continue to explore how to
develop it in today's meditation.
So thank you for your practice.
And let's settle in
forward today's meditation.

Vidyamala’s tips on catching anger as it’s happening or about to happen are great - clear, practical, and doable.
- Vicoir
The little talks before the meditations are priceless. It's like I've found my peeps. The topics, the quotes, the goals—it all makes so much sense to me, things I want to be thinking and learning about. Most importantly, the meditations are kindness-centered, which I love. It feels like a new way to approach meditation.
- Lauren
