The Self-Love Habit

Resisting fear does one thing only: it creates more fear.

Love and fear are deeply and intrinsically interconnected – one cannot exist without the other.

‘Have patience with all things, but, first of all with yourself.’

Love is the antidote to fear. Love is life itself.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau, the French enlightenment philosopher, wrote, ‘Man is born free, but is everywhere in chains.’

In the seeds of acceptance, love emerges.

Dr Brené Brown, the international bestselling author and researcher, defined calmness as ‘perspective, mindfulness and the ability to manage emotional reactivity’.

‘Véritable soi’ is a French phrase that originally comes from Latin and means ‘true and genuine self’.

As Oscar Wilde said, ‘To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.’

The realisation that you have a choice is your ultimate liberation.
