Self-love - remembering your own worth.

The importance of self-respect, personal time, rest, tranquility and nature

When everyday life makes us forget ourselves

It's easy to get caught up in everything we have to do to make life work. Work, family, relationships – and in the midst of it all, we can lose ourselves. Our own power, joy and sense of worth risk fading into the noise.


To embrace the whole self

Self-love is not just about the bright and light. It is also about daring to hold space for our shadows. When we allow ourselves to see both the strength and vulnerability within ourselves, self-worth truly grows.


Small acts of kindness

Self-love doesn't have to be big words or gestures. It can start small. Drinking water when your body craves it. Resting without a guilty conscience. Saying no when something doesn't feel right. Small acts of kindness become building blocks that strengthen us step by step.


Distinguishing between self-love and selfishness

Many women carry a fear of being perceived as selfish when they prioritize themselves. But self-love is the opposite. When we give ourselves what we need, we become stronger, more present – ​​and can also give more to others, without draining ourselves of power.


Rituals to strengthen self-love

Self-love is often built in everyday life. It can be small rituals that deepen the feeling of care:

  • to light a candle
  • buy flowers for yourself
  • enjoy their favorite food
  • create moments of rest
  • Surround yourself with scents, incense or music

Another simple ritual is to write empowering words on notes and place them where we see them often – on the mirror, the fridge or by the computer. Every time we encounter the words, they become like seeds that grow within us.

Examples of words to carry with you:

✨ I am enough
✨ I love myself just the way I am
✨ I am worthy of rest and recovery
✨ I am strong even when I am vulnerable
✨ I deserve to feel joy
✨ I am valuable in every moment
✨ I am grateful for who I am today
✨ I give myself the same kindness I give others


When self-love feels difficult

For many, self-love feels both appealing and difficult. It can feel like something we “should be able to do,” but often slips out of our hands. Yet self-love is not a luxury – it is a foundation we need to feel good and live wholeheartedly.


Surround yourself with what uplifts you.

Self-love is also about being careful about what – and who – we let into our lives. Choosing what empowers us is not selfish, it is necessary. Every time we say yes to people, environments and experiences that empower us, we are also saying yes to ourselves.


Long-term changes

Self-love is not about quick fixes. It is often the small, long-term steps that create lasting change. Leaving a job that drains you or saying goodbye to relationships that no longer feel right can take time. But every step we take to build a sustainable everyday life makes us stronger.


Small steps that lead to big changes

Observe without judgment – ​​write down what gives you energy and what takes it away from you.
Give yourself micro-breaks – five minutes of breathing, music or fresh air can make a big difference.
Talk to someone you trust – words can turn something vague into clarity.
Explore alternatives – a course, a hobby or a network can open new paths.
Set an internal deadline – decide on a time when you want to have made a major decision.


A reminder

Self-love isn't about always feeling strong. It's about giving yourself space to be human—with all that that entails. Every small step toward kindness toward yourself is also a step toward flourishing.


A memory on the wrist or heart

Feeling the weight of a stone or touching a pearl can become a ritual: “I am here, I count, I am valuable.”

Crystals like rose quartz, lepidolite, or rhodonite are often associated with self-love and the energy of the heart. Wearing them close to the body can be a reminder that love always starts from within.


Your own story

No piece of jewelry is neutral – it becomes part of your story. A mala can carry the memory of a journey, a bracelet can be a friend through tough days, a ring can become the symbol of choosing yourself.
