Learning self-love means being benevolent toward yourself, offering kindness even on the days when your heart feels desolate. It also means being flexible—allowing yourself to change, grow, and adjust without guilt. You stop letting negative thoughts act with impunity, and you replace them with gentle reminders of your worth. Most of all, you learn to focus only on what is relevant to your healing, letting go of anything that does not serve your peace.
