A mother loves her newly born child unconditionally and even in a love relationship the other person seems perfect in the beginning. But many of us do not love ourselves unconditionally, we are not always able to forgive and accept our own mistakes. We often see too many mistakes and negatives and are extremely hard on ourselves.
Spirituality can play a role in feeling unconditional love for yourself. Centuries-old traditions and wisdom from all over the world can guide us on our path, below you will find a number of elements of this wisdom:
Step 1: Connect with your inner self
This means paying more attention to taking care of yourself. Through mediation, self-reflection, a moment for yourself and a few minutes of silence per day you can make contact with your inner world. You will see that you will appreciate and enjoy these moments.
Step 2: Look honestly at your inner obstacles and resistance
Most people don’t like to look at their weaknesses and negative points because they judge them. But you are only human and you will see that your insecurity stems from past feelings that you can heal. Because these feelings want to be released if you give them a chance. The first step to healing is to look within and begin the process of releasing. Healing yourself can be done in many different ways – from therapy to group conversations, through Reiki, massages and various Eastern alternative medicine.
Step 3: Stop avoiding old wounds
When you release old wounds, you will notice that pain, resentment and emotions surface that you will have to work with. You will probably need help dealing with these feelings. Maybe a good friend, mentor, coach or psychologist. No one can do this alone. You can also look for someone who has already walked the path you are currently on and who can empathize with you and empathize with you.

Step 4: Forgive your past
You cannot just forgive things. It’s easy to pretend that you’ve forgiven things, when in reality you’re just looking for a way to escape the pain. First you have to accept yourself and then you can realize that at that moment you acted the way you thought you should act and that people around you acted the way they did from their level of consciousness. This can be quite challenging, especially when someone has hurt you deeply.
Step 5: Accept where you are now
The present is also not free from memories and wounds from the past. These need to be taken care of before you can look around you again, breathe lightly again and love where you are now. A good start is to be aware of your bad memories and say, “I am not that person anymore.” Because that’s the truth.
Step 6: Look for relationships in which you feel safe and loved
The road to unconditional self-love does not have to be a lonely one. You should walk this path with people who reflect the love you see in yourself. Find the right people around you, people who understand your path and who can sympathize with you.
Step 7: Give yourself the love you want to receive. Many women continue to wait in vain for “the one”. But the only way to find unconditional love is to be “the one” yourself. You often attract people who are similar to you and the more you live by your ideals, the more likely you are to attract someone with the same ideals.
These steps will naturally form as you pay attention to these steps. You were born to be loved, so love yourself too. There is no better time to start loving yourself than right now.
