“The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely.” C G Jung
I have written about Anita Moorjani before from her book “Dying to be me.” The following is some of the amazing wisdom from her book.
Consciously live in each moment, live in that space which is within us all. Breathe in that moment and cherish it as if it was your last. If there is something you desire, the idea is to not go out externally and get it, but to expand your consciousness to allow universal energy to bring into your reality.
Remind everyone close to you to be themselves, and tell them that you love them just the way they are! Most suffering stems from feeling “less than”. You are not less than anything or anyone. You are complete.
The only thing you need to learn is that you already are what you are seeking to attain. Express yourself fearlessly with abandon.
When we are true to ourselves, we become instruments of truth for the planet. Because we are all connected, we touch the lives of everyone around us, who then affects others. Our only obligation is to be the love we are and allow our answers to come from within.
Enjoy yourself and do not take life so seriously. Day-to-day problems never seem as big, when viewed through a veil of humour and love. Laugh more, be serious less.
In the midst of worrying about everything that is wrong out there, do not forget to enjoy each moment and to take care of what’s inside.
When we realise we are love, and that love is the answer for the many issues that we face each day, then tomorrow make a promise to yourself, and love yourself enough to keep that promise.
“The most powerful relationship you will ever have is the relationship with yourself.” – Steve Maraboli
Karen,
Many people relate loving yourself to ego and arrogance but truly loving yourself is the total opposite. It is saying “I am worthy” and “I love myself exactly as I am”. This is a hard lesson and difficult to remember. I have felt glimpses of it and it feels truly wonderful.
Thanks Mel. It is difficult to completely love ourselves but everyday it gets a little easier and then the abundance of life can be ours!
