It is essential to people to love themselves because without self love we can not truly give love to relationships or receive love. Self love involves celebrating our unique and special gifts we offer to the world. It is important to nurture ourselves: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually and maintain balance in all of these areas. It is important to treat ourselves with kindness and love and affirm all the positive qualities we posses on a daily basis. It is important to believe in a higher source (g-d) outside of ourselves so we do not become selfish and narcissistic.

We all need a safe and nurturing relationship so we can grow and develop. We need an environment where we feel: safe, secure, consistent and stable. You might wonder what a safe and nurturing relationship looks like? The foundation of a healthy relationship is built upon self love and mutual respect. It is important to speak your truth with yourself as well as in all relationships. An authentic relationship with ones' self is essential in making healthy loving relationships with: a friend, neighbor, co-worker, mom or dad, sibling, girlfriend, husband or wife.

We need to feel that are boundaries are respected. Healthy boundaries are vital in relation to optimal love. Physical boundaries relate to creating: adequate sleep, healthy dietary habits, exercise on a regular basis, time to be alone, time to follow your passions and hobbies, time for your loved ones and family. Emotional boundaries relate to: how you communicate and how your communication is received. Healthy loving relationships are: respectful, loyal, honest, supportive, reliable, trusting, humble, considerate, and respectful. Intimacy is also important in a loving relationship. Intimacy can be thought of as "into me........you see." It is important to be honest with your thoughts and feelings and to communicate them in a healthy manner in order to develop a loving connection.

Love is a participatory emotion. We create it rather than passively waiting for it to arrive. Self awareness of feelings, self love, honesty, respect, balance (physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually), trust, support, loyalty, and healthy boundaries are essential to create a true loving relationship. Self awareness allows us the foundation to communicate in a healthy way. Love is hard work but the benefits are infinite.
