Most women have felt loved at some point in their lives, and they've sought the love of boyfriends and best friends. But they often forget about one crucial person. If we could all feel the sort of unconditional love we've heard about, if we could know that we are completely and utterly loved and honoured by someone important to us, how would we feel? How would we feel if we learned how to create that love for ourselves?In this lively and enchanting new book, Christine Arylo encourages, dares, and challenges women to love themselves so much that they will never choose a situation or a relationship that does not reflect that powerful love. The book is set up as a 40-day adventure in falling in love with yourself by passing through defined "gates" of falling in love. The gates are ongoing challenges to respecting and loving yourself expressed through statements such as: "I know who I am and I know what I want in life," "My body is my temple," "I take care of me, without guilt," and "All of my relationships reflect and support who I truly am."
The daily practices are designed to reprogram self-sabotaging habits, patterns, thoughts into self-loving and self-empowering ones. They push women out of their comfort zone to reveal something about themselves they may not know or never thought about. The explanations within each section explore how we are held back from self-love and offer suggestions for dealing with the emotional graspers or energy suckers.
No matter where a woman starts, or how many of the exercises she does, she will end this book with a better sense of her own worth and a new, powerful, delightful best friend.
