One of the tools I’ve picked up that serves me daily is: remembering not to take things personally. People’s words and actions are based on their own reality and their own wounds, and often times it actually has nothing to do with us. By not taking things personally, we can stay in a clearer state and respond more in line with our highest self. It’s not easy but the simple act of remembering has transformed so many experiences and relationships. . ✌🏽 Photo from my stay in one of my favorite places #ourzazate #protectyourenergy Self-love has been a lifelong pursuit. I still have to practice un-learning 28 years’ worth of bs about being “not enough”. We are taught from a young age how to be the woman men/society wants, but who do those ideas serve? . When I began to see myself, not externally through the lens of a man / others, but from within, as a creative power alive with the same atoms and stardust that make up all of the universe, I began to get deeply in touch with my sense of self-love and power. . Perhaps to society’s impossible standards of perfection, I would never ‘be enough,’ but to the entirety of the cosmos, I am enough. I must be, because this inexplicable, mysterious, grandiose life force is living through me. . The stability of my self-love began when I saw myself through the eyes of this life force, that which beats my heart and breathes my lungs. . Self-love is contrary to everything we have learned. It benefits capitalism for us to feel ‘less than,’ we become perfect little obedient consumers of a marketplace. . Perhaps, then, true self-love is one of the most revolutionary acts we can practice. . I encourage all my brothers and sisters to try speaking toward themselves the way they would a loved one. Give yourself all the love you would give someone else. Discipline and treat yourself when you need it. Allow yourself to be your priority. . #powerbeautymovementnb @natalia_benson Monday is better with movement and movement is better with friends 💫@brittalexandrap Well if we must stay inside, we’ll keep in good company and a dreamy space ✨
