My dear Global Yoga Community,

“Radical self-love and self-acceptance” is a powerful concept of embracing oneself wholly and unconditionally.  All of this is not new to us, but to put into action becomes a different story.
I recently read this quote and it touched me deeply, because it is simple and to the point.

“My arms grew tired from constantly reaching,
so I wrapped them around myself
and allowed them to rest”

Self-Love
Self-love involves nurturing a deep appreciation, care, and compassion for oneself. It means recognizing one’s worth, acknowledging strengths and weaknesses, and treating oneself with kindness and respect. Self-love involves prioritizing self-care practices that promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being. It also entails setting boundaries, saying no when necessary, and making choices that align with personal values and goals.

Radical Self-Love
Radical self-love takes the concept of self-love a step further by advocating for a fierce, unapologetic, and unwavering love for oneself. It challenges societal norms, stereotypes, and expectations that may hinder individuals from fully embracing and celebrating their authentic selves. Radical self-love encourages individuals to reclaim their power, embrace their uniqueness, and reject harmful narratives or standards that promote self-doubt or self-criticism.

Self-Acceptance
Self-acceptance involves embracing oneself fully, including both strengths and weaknesses, without judgment or comparison to others. It means acknowledging and embracing one’s flaws, imperfections, and vulnerabilities as essential parts of the human experience. Self-acceptance allows individuals to let go of unrealistic expectations and embrace their authentic selves. It fosters a sense of inner peace, authenticity, and empowerment.

Combining radical self-love and self-acceptance creates a transformative mindset that promotes inner harmony, resilience, and empowerment. It encourages individuals to celebrate their uniqueness, cultivate a positive relationship with themselves, and navigate life’s challenges with confidence and grace. Embracing radical self-love and self-acceptance can lead to profound personal growth, increased self-confidence, and a deeper sense of fulfillment and joy in life.

After all one can say it is a process! 🙂
