While we could take the time to debate what Philautia Love is and is not we will simply settle on this: Philautia Love is a matter of UNCONDITIONAL SELF-ACCEPTANCE. Ask yourself the question; can I acknowledge and love myself unconditionally? There are several things that take place within in you when you do not, and here are three:
- You hold yourself back fr0m achieving the life that you truly want to live.
- It will become increasingly difficult to love anyone else because the judgements or criticisms that you place on yourself will inevitably be projected onto those around you.
- You feel like you don’t measure up and therefore it would be tough for you to believe that you are loved, and even tougher for your to receive it.
We at TGD, are truly advocates of cultivating self-love (in case you haven’t noticed 😉). If our mission if to help you, our most valued guests, foster relationships with others, how could we not encourage you to foster what is arguably the most important relationship you will have? Here is a great tip: write down all of the things that you love about yourself, not just the things that you like but the things that you truly LOVE about who you are. Once you have created that list, find ways to celebrate yourself! You are a beautifully, unique individual who deserves to be celebrated. If no one else celebrates you, do it for yourself. Can we make self-gifting a thing? This is not about heading out to the mall to splurge on all the things you like but rather, we encourage you to dig deep, take the time, and be intentional in selecting a meaningful gift for yourself in celebration of YOU! As your friendly gift ambassadors, we are more than happy to steer you in the right direction, with many inspirational ideas!
