Find your Beloved

What if you were your own “Beloved?”

You know how we all sit around and wait for our “Beloved” to show up? Or our soul mate? What if we did not have to wait?

So, what if we gave ourselves permission to be our own “beloved”?

How would we treat ourselves if we were our own beloved?

Hmmmmm…let us explore this. How would a “beloved” treat me?

As my own Beloved, I would feed myself the best, most fresh organic food I could find.
As my own Beloved, I would bless every morsel of food and drink that passed my beloved lips.
I would choose clothing that was soft against my skin.

If I were my own Beloved I would “shush” the inner critic at the first peep.
If I were my own Beloved I would say NO to things my heart really did not want to do.
If I were my own Beloved I would I would smile lovingly at myself all throughout the day.
If I were my own Beloved I would not criticize my age spots, I would pat them lovingly, kiss them and rub some lotion on them.
If I were my own Beloved I would say “yes’ to others when my heart was really in it and that one yes would be more fruitful than 10 halfhearted yeses.
If I were my own Beloved I would I would encourage myself to read and watch materials that were uplifting or made me laugh.
If I were my own Beloved I would be compassionate and kind to others but not allow myself to get sucked down into a sad vortex.

If I were my own Beloved I would see my business as an extension of my heart and nurture it the same way I nurture myself. (I am happy to say that I DO see my business as an extension of my heart…truly.)

So- let’s treat ourselves as our own beloveds for just one day and see how wonderful that feels. A Beloved would protect, cherish, honor, love, and respect us in all things. Let’s do that for ourselves and see how we feel at the end of the day.

Please leave your comments and share ways you would treat yourself as your own Beloved.
