This IS a Self-Love Movement + A Self-Love Meditation | The WISDOM podcast | S2 E15 with Dorothy Ratusny

<p style="text-align:center;"></p> <p style="text-align:center;">This IS a Self-Love Movement</p> Season 2 Episode 15 of The WISDOM podcast with Dorothy Ratusny <p> </p> <p>In this episode, I've been inspired to share what I am naming The Self-Love Movement; because we all need to reclaim self-love; we need to understand what it means and we need to live it - as one solution for growing our confidence and self-worth and for being willing to live self-sustainably and of our ‘truth’; and in the present moment because this is how we witness our innate happiness.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Here’s an important secret: All of us face the same challenges. You might suspect that our common challenge is related to finances, or whether we are loved; or if we have the right job, or if we have chosen the best partner? </p> <p> </p> <p>These are also challenges of the physical world that we may have made our reality.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here’s the thing: Innate happiness is not attached to any ‘thing’. Rather it’s what you feel as you live of the present moment + this feeling is perpetuated as you make a commitment to yourself to live with your heart open, free in giving of your kindness and love to others and to yourself.</p> <p> </p> <p>Happiness is not attached to a thing, or a person, or to you bank account; to what you own, to what you child says or does; its about acknowledging who you are; and living and loving the being that you are.</p> <p> </p> <p>This is why we choose to do the work – the inner work – of our self. It’s to free us from harbouring pain and hurt of the past; to make peace with what is; to practice acceptance of what has already happened, and to decide how we will choose to be now and in our future.</p> <p> </p> <p>If you want to put yourself in a state of happiness, of peace, of joy; if you want to eliminate anxiety, fear, self-doubt – to feel truly alive and to honour your choices and decisions; if you really want to live "heaven on earth"; you must begin here; with what you tell
