Do you ever feel sad or unhappy sometimes?
Well, did you know that the key to finding true happiness is by being happy with yourself first?
That’s right, before you can make friends, or have a boyfriend or girlfriend, you must first have a healthy relationship with yourself.
So, how can you develop a healthy relationship with yourself?
There are 5 essential skills that you can practice to help you build a strong foundation for a fulfilling life. These skills are self-awareness, self-reflection, self-care, setting healthy boundaries, and self-compassion.
- Self-awareness means paying attention to your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and understanding how they affect you.
- Self-reflection means thinking about your experiences and learning from them.
- Self-care means taking care of your physical and mental health by doing things that make you feel good, like eating healthy foods, exercising, and getting enough sleep.
- Setting healthy boundaries means knowing your limits and being assertive about them, so that others don’t take advantage of you or make you feel uncomfortable.
- And lastly, self-compassion means treating yourself with kindness and understanding, just like you would treat a good friend.
Remember, it’s not always easy to develop a healthy relationship with yourself, but the journey is worth it, and the benefits are immeasurable.
By practicing these essential skills, you can learn to love and accept yourself for who you are, and that’s the first step towards true happiness.
Let me tell you a story about two friends who were talking about finding happiness within themselves.
One friend noticed that they always wanted others to tell them they were doing a good job and constantly needed approval from others.
The other friend noticed that they never took care of themselves, always putting others before their own needs.
To achieve true happiness, the two friends acknowledged that they needed to cultivate a positive relationship with themselves. They recognized the importance of focusing on their thoughts and emotions and prioritizing their self-care needs. By doing so, they could effectively care for others without compromising their own well-being.
You see, it’s important to love and value yourself, and to prioritize self-care. This means doing things that make you happy and taking time for yourself. It’s also important to set boundaries and say no when you need to.
Remember, you are important and your needs matter.
By taking care of yourself and developing a healthy relationship with yourself, you will feel happier and more fulfilled in your life.
Your guardian angels urge you to prepare for the monumental changes that are coming into your life by focusing on developing a healthy relationship with yourself. They advise you to practice self-care, set healthy boundaries, and challenge negative thought patterns. They remind you that true happiness comes from within and encourage you to embrace vulnerability and growth.
You know how sometimes big changes can happen in our lives and they can be a little bit scary?
Your guardian angels want you to know that there are some really amazing changes coming your way, and they want you to be ready for them.
Focusing on taking care of yourself is an excellent way to prepare for what’s ahead. Your angels recommend taking care of yourself by doing things that bring you joy, such as reading your favorite book or taking a bubble bath. They also suggest setting healthy boundaries and speaking up when others hurt your feelings or make you uncomfortable.
They also want you to remember that it’s okay to feel sad or scared sometimes, and that talking about your feelings with someone you trust can help you feel better.
Remember, you’re amazing just the way you are and your angels are here to support you every step of the way!
Now, reflect on the process of releasing negativity and past failures that have been holding you back from finding happiness within yourself.
Realize that by focusing on taking care of yourself and being kind to yourself, you can create a new way of thinking that allows you to be happier and more fulfilled. This means paying attention to your thoughts, feelings, needs, and setting boundaries to protect your well-being. With these tools, you can move forward in life with confidence and positivity.

As you focus on finding happiness within yourself, remember that preparation and trust in the universe are key elements of the journey. Three scriptures that capture the essence of this message are:

Be still, and know that I am God.
