Loving oneself is not about feeling superior to others (that's not love)...love for yourself is a healthy respect for the being that is you. When we love ourselves we take care of ourselves and we also attract more good into our lives.
If you want a little help to remember to love yourself, you can actually get a shirt that will help! The clothing is available at retail stores...to find out more about the company and where you can get the clothes, check out their site a www.loveyourself.com
They have lots of links to some of our faves like Hay House, Abraham-Hicks and many, many more great teachers...you can also sign up for a Daily Love motivation
I really like their page with quotes about what some of our wonderful teachers say about what loving yourself means...
Enjoy--and remember, you deserve love!
And if you struggle with weight loss, read about loving yourself and losing weight at Refuse To Diet

Passionate Giving
There are so many opportunities to give back to the world...sometimes it can seem like too many choices. How on earth can we help everyone?
The answer is for us to act upon the thing that moves us...gets our juices flowing!
I was reminded about this idea of passionate giving this weekend by a couple of great, giving guys. Two men on opposite sides of the country who are both going to be traveling great distances to help causes they believe super strongly in.
My brother-in-law is hopping on a bicycle next weekend. He is starting in San Francisco and riding to Los Angeles to raise awareness and money to help those with AIDS and find cures and preventions so others are not struck down by this dis-ease.
If this speaks to you, you can donate to his ride
On the other side of the country, Tellman Knudson is passionate about ending teenage homelessness in the USA. Tellman is currently training to run across the country--barefoot! He plans to start his run on September 1. Learn more about Tellman's run at http://RunTellmanRun.com and you can donate to his cause through Virgin Unite, Richard Branson's non-profit.
These are both wonderful causes...and if you have another that speaks to you, then follow your heart. I'm pointing these two out because these fine men are following through on their passions and spending their time, energy and money to help others--not because they "should" but because it is in their hearts.
I know I have a lot to learn from both of them! Maybe we all can't ride 500 miles or run across the country, but we can all do something...so let's do what we can for the cause of our hearts, and we will truly leave the world a better place.
Remember, it only takes small actions by lots of people to make an impact on the world!

Weight Loss and Law of Attraction
I know the Law of Attraction works...and it can be used to have success in any area of your life.
I have lost 120 pounds--and it all started with the Law of Attraction.
After being exposed again and again to LoA, I finally made a conscious decision to change my life by changing my thinking. I'd tried changing what I ate and how I exercised and those traditional methods hadn't worked, so why not try changing my thinking.
After all, what did I have to lose? (HA!)
So I accepted responsibility for my weight and became open to the possibility that I could reach a healthy weight. I worked on myself--loving and accepting myself as I was then and the potential that was within.
That is how it all began. I then attracted teachers and tools that helped facilitate the weight loss even further. I use affirmations, I study great spiritual teachers, and I practice loving myself...that is what makes it all work.
I am so grateful for all the teachers who helped me along the way...and if I can help anyone out there who is struggling--please let me know.

Start the Year with Love
Loving self is the key to all the world's problems. I am convinced that it is the single most important thing that we can do.
Not narcissitic or egotistical love, but a healthy respect and appreciation for oneself, for the unique qualities that make each of us special.
By recognizing and valuing our unique qualities we are less in need of approval from others and at the same time more able to recognize and value the uniqueness of others!
When we love ourselves we take care of ourselves. When we love others we want to cause them no harm. Between those two thoughts lies the answer to peace and prosperity.
That's a great way to start the year!
