▲ Love Like the Ocean

▲ Love Like the Ocean

Affirmation:

  • I joyfully explore the great and wild love that is here for me in every moment. 
  • This infinite love is who I truly am—it is my home.
  • The more I fill myself up with this love, the better I feel, and the better my life becomes.

Encouraging Message:

Today’s writing is all about expanding your capacity to love yourself, and this goes hand-in-hand with stretching the boundaries of your self-concept, or who you believe yourself to be.

Like the ocean, the depth of love available for each one of us is never ending and always present. 

Like the stars in the night’s sky, the amount of good-feeling thoughts we can have about ourselves is unlimited. 

If you are feeling a lack of love right now, just know that it’s here, regardless of whether you feel it or not. Everything exists right now in this moment. 

The heart and mind is each like a radio, and we get to tune the station (the frequency)—we get to choose which channel we want to listen to on a moment-by-moment basis. And there are always better feeling thoughts and emotions for us to enter into. 

Expanding your self-love: that’s emotional health. Expanding your self-concept: that’s mental health. Practice opening your mind and heart to greater ideas and a more profound level of love. The impact this can have on your life is unparalleled—for the more you are able to open up, the more you can receive.

Reflective Prompts:

  • In moments when I feel off, how can I expand my awareness to see that there are better feeling thoughts I could be thinking?

  • In moments when I feel unlovable, how can I remember that there is always unconditional compassion here for me, and all I have to do is tune in?
  • Write yourself a letter for those low moments, or for when you're feeling stuck or uninspired. Keep it close by for when you need a reminder of how much you are loved, and how there's always a stream of enlightening ideas that you could tune into instead. 

Closing:

Infinite are the loving emotions we can feel about ourselves, and never ending are the enlightening thoughts (ideas that bring light). When we feel and think in loving ways about ourselves, it is reflected through us and flows to everyone and everything around us. Expanding your self-love and self-concept is the most honorable act of all, because it benefits all.
