- The way you feel about yourself affects the way you relate to others. The relationship you have with yourself sets the tone for all other relationships.

____________________________________________________
This video is for people who want to know how to love and accept yourself, how to practice self love, how to be kind to yourself, how to be less codependent, how to not be codependent, how to be emotionally independent, how to enjoy being single and alone, how to improve your relationships, how to be less needy, how to increase self esteem and feel good about yourself.
Respect yourself first, then loving yourself will follow
There is no self, so the proper attitude is to not hate yourself, and to accept yourself as a perfectly fine illusion that is exactly as it should be, and exactly as it was created to be by life.
That's your perspective. On top of that you just established there is no self. And went on to say don't hate yourself...and while that sounds all well and good. Why shouldn't you allow whatever feelings you have to come up? You can't not hate yourself. Cause if you hate yourself then you hate yourself. For whatever reason. It can be a perspective you have, or maybe you allow what others say to get to you...but the fact of the matter is at a given point in time you hate yourself...so you try to avoid it by identifying as something else. By saying you are an illusion you're just escaping from the facts. Regardless of what level or extent its true.
You can't just poof💨 it all away. There's a lot of work that has to be done to separate the machine mind to get to your essence. Sometimes, it takes a lifetime.
Thank you sincerely for all the good that you’ve done with this channel. ❤️
Thank you for your continued insights and guidance.
I appreciate these videos; they have and continue to help me overcome my insecurities. Thank you for making them.
I am the opposite, I so throughly dont want a relationship. Its been growing over the years. I love every second I am alone, I get more done, I feel more accomplished. In the distant past I would always over give, I would shower the person with affection and attention. Then after a time I would start to feel taken advantage of. I have worked and worked on myself, I quit all addictions, it started with meat at 17, then you name it all the rest went the same way. Now I turn my focus on meditation and opening my 3rd eye. I have an exact conjunction with Neptune and my Sun and balancing & aligning all my Chakras. The days of searching for a relationship are finally over.
I love your energy and how you articulate these messages in such a clear, heart felt way. From my heart to yours, thank you 💜
Thank you so much for this message. I’ve struggled with self-criticism and seeking approval for years. I’ve occasionally turned to the practice of self-love as an antidote to my inner negativity and my cravings for connection, but self-love never really stuck, because I just couldn’t quite process the idea of expressing love to myself or fully accepting it from others. I never really considered challenging my inner critic as a path to self-love.
Haven't listened to this yet Jake, but every morning a simple 'I Love you Jake' will really help. Well, I Love you Jake :)
@@patjos7719 Thank you, friend. Much love. 🙂
I’ve listened to this message again and again. Thank you 🙏 you’ve made a difference in my life today it’s helping me unpack what was smuggled in. Namaste 🙏
It's hard to find nice people on this planet ♡
Thank you for your sincere messages. I think that the greatest obstruction to the expression of the love which is our nature is the idea that we are an individual self separated from the rest of humanity and animals.
Thank you for this. Great advice. Very calming voice. Very gentle. ♥️
Love can only BE full and genuine. We confuse this with ideals of love, thus making love less than what it is. Love has no degrees....only the minds idea of love. This is why we dumb down love to our limited innerstanding. Especially the so called expression of love. All can love and all can receive love. But we focus only on the surface level of the understanding of love and so, only see what a person projects.
I love myself very much and I also love a man who is not loving me but I don't care ♡
Wisdom and kindness comes clearly from you. And everything begins from within us, therefore most important work is inwards.... only we internalise from our early environment somethings that are not true or conducive to healthy loveful life and live unable to see what's happened.... keep struggling to overcome, prove otherwise ( that's be loveable). So outward effort is so consuming that we miss turning inwards to resolve or dissolve the inner issues, ideas, images, beliefs that unnecessarily block the love we all have. Thankyou for your wise kind expressions.
This came at a perfect time where I'm been trying to remove the blockages to receiving love. It's false self beliefs that were planted in childhood that's made me avoid it and not even try anymore. I know I have cared deeply for people but then been burned so it made me even more cautious which has effectively made me keep everyone away even more. I know I have a lot of love and empathy for others, I know what's in my heart, I cry when people cry, I'm happy when they're happy but I don't feel anyone has that for me but this is the limiting self belief, the lie. By being closed off, I've decided for people that they can't love me. I'm on this healing journey but it's very difficult, lots of ups and down. An ebb and flow of feeling that love that already exists within me and then feeling a lack. I pray everyday I come to the Truth🙏🏻
Beautiful video 😍
Thank you for all your wisdom. 🙏
Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
damn... I don't even know where I would be if it wasn't for this channel
Thank You! and all the best for You!
Just wonderful
Love heals 💖 and God is Love. Being loving and honoring the energies of love are always the magic of manifesting our dreams come true. It is a constant realization that love is eternal and everlasting and has to be made over and over again. Shine love as a cleansing process that is ongoing and based upon the releasing of our energies in healing and transformational energies that resonate out into the world.
When we choose to engage with each other we have to be deccerning and choose a person who is easily able to celebrate our own personal presence and aspects of our life. We all need to be respected and cared about. We have to be honest and loving in our lives with others and with ourselves. We are all worthy of love ❤ We all have obstacles and challenges and circumstances that make us different from each other. Be kind, respectful, caring, gentle and nurturing in our lives with the love of being able to be compassionate and considerate.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video with us on the energies of love without judgment, criticism, comparisons, competition, drama, fears and feelings of inadequacy and other things that block the love of being. Intentions of love and the attention to love are the best way to guide us in the process of being loving constantly without any reward or expectations. Relax and enjoy the blessings of being connected to the world in peace and understanding through the love ❤
Your videos are fantastic and the way you express yourself give me keys to understand myself and understand others. You also transmit wisdom and deep peace. Thank you for being there and sharing so generously.
I'm so happy that you are making videos again!!! I've been missing your lessons!!! Thank you so much!
❤❤❤
I needed this today. Thank you very much for these videos.
💎💙 Balance is all, there are si many perceptions about what life is. As you said, we are perfect the way we were created, the way we feel, the way we flow in life. Not judging, but embracing what we can't understand. Just loving ourselves above all for being here in this illusion, experience and/or adventure.
Thank you. This was so needed for me to hear. Many Blessings to you.
Thank you for your sincere and very clear valuable guidance. I so appreciate it.
Thankyou, your words mean so much to me you are so very wise 🖤

Thank you brother. Love your talks. Full of wisdom. Great help for me. So sincere are your words. Beautiful man you are.
Thank You 💖
I’ve experienced partially that how it works. So true. Stay in love❤
Amazing video, pure truth here. I have found to love myself more (and others) was to lower the expectations of myself (and others), since then I am more peaceful, more joyful and much more loving. I love the old saying, 'The best I can do for you, is to work on myself, and the best thing you can do for me, is work on yourself." Thank you for this incredibly insightful video my friend. Namaste'
Bravo, thank you

Thank you ✨
This is all good stuff...but a big reason why people end up in negative relationships / have low self esteem is because as children they grew up in a home of neglect, abuse or high dysfunction.
Unfortunately the human mind does not go towards what it wants, but instead it goes to what is familiar.
If you don't get to have and see healthy relationships as a child, it can be very hard even to recognize a positive relationship as an adult.
For many who find themseleves in a pattern of negative relationships, the source of the problem is their childhood....the years of abuse or neglect makes them have not only low self esteem, but they are unable to recognize what healthy relationships are like.
There is a lady on you tube who talks about this a lot, called the "the crappy childhood fairy"
Gratitude ❤🙏
You are a Lovely person.
In my situation I have unconditional, massive, never ending eternal love for my children but only conditional love for myself. I love them more than myself, but I still can receive love. I'm not sure how to work on that other than self care and meditate on it.
I'll try the stuff you mentioned.
Thank you
Thank u Nada ❤❤
Hi Nada, Amazing video as always.came at the right time as I am embarking on this journey myself. I do have one request , can you please make a video on self confidence, I struggle so much with lack of self confidence, it causes me to doubt myself everytime, it’s crippling and affecting my life negatively and even at my job, I really hope you see this comment and hopefully respond
I love you thank you.
Thanks
Lots of good stuff! Thank you!! One issue, the love you are talking about is what the Greeks called agape. So we can have other kinds of love but they are limited without unconditional love of agape. I think it's a better way of looking at love. Limiting love to just one word limits the way we talk and think about it.
🙏🏻
💯💗
💚💚💖💖💜💜
I keep feeling that loving myself is narcissism
🙏❤️🙏
Hi love your posts could you do one on the subject of BELIEFES V KNOWING 🙏🏼🧘♂️✌️💚🌱
♡
Listen!!!! 😊😂
How have you managed to get rid of the blockages? If you did...
For sure a very important personal development it's required, but I was wondering if that is enough or if there would be the need of someone to help.. it will might depend on our willingness, our awareness I guess
I find myself in this exact same situation where I'm too used to rejection by women to the point where it became my default expectation of them. They're supposed to dislike me and treat me like I belong in a leper colony, and I've come to accept that as inherent to my core being. So, on the odd occasion when a woman actually shows an interest in me, my gut instinct tells me that this is not right and not the natural order of things. I figure the only reason she may like me is because she wants something from me or she's crazy, and that she's incapable of showing actual, genuine, heartfelt love to a shmuck like me. It's as if I give off this vibe that I'm really not relationship material, and that I'm a prime target for opportunists to take advantage of me and break my heart into pieces. So, fake it and make it feel like love, then pull the rug out from underneath me once I'm no longer useful to them. Granted, some women have been genuinely rotten and cruel to me, so perhaps I've built up this defense mechanism to keep them from getting the best of me ever again. It's not a healthy mindset to be in, I'll admit that, and trying to shake it off has proven to be a tall order. I am a work in progress, and this cruel, unforgiving world we live in certainly isn't helping any.
Hey man. I'm in the same boat same mindset toward women, it gets really hard to deal with when I'm all alone & I'd like nothing more than to feel seen by a woman but that moment of desire gets replaced with spite when I remember how fucking toxic & irresponsible they can be.
