Learning to Appreciate Yourself, Even When It's Hard

Hey there. Self-appreciation is an essential step on the path to self-love. After self-acceptance”where we acknowledge where we are in life” self-appreciation is about recognizing the value of everything that got us to this point. Even if there are things we want to change, it’s important to pause and say, “I’m proud of myself for who I am today.”

This doesn’t mean we stop growing, but it shifts our mindset from constant self-criticism to building a supportive relationship with ourselves. Journaling and therapy are great tools to unpack the emotions and thoughts tied to self-appreciation. It’s time to stop tearing ourselves down and start appreciating who we are.
