Is it really that important?

Hello my dear 🙂 how are you today ?

I hope you are doing well and having a wonderful day !

I have a question for you today that was on my mind —

Is celebrating yourself important? Is it necessary? Or maybe why should you ?

That’s what I decided to talk about today.

Today , as always , take your favorite cup of tea, light a candle that speaks to you most , and let’s dive in:)

Celebrating yourself

Celebrating both the big things and the small things.

Some days showing compassion to your anxiety is the biggest achievement, other days feeling like you can move mountains. Every day is different and there is something to celebrate in each one of them !

I know , some days finding something to celebrate can be hard and uncomfortable, but keep on reading 🙂

So why I chose this topic today- I was having a moment of not feeling grounded, feeling off my center and what I was feeling like doing was a meditation.

I baked cookies, had a wonderful day and then felt like doing a meditation, but this time I went for something else. I know , yes, I love meditations, I love working with them , but today I felt that I wanted something else…

I put on one of my favorite songs (Mega- Chariot) , sang it to myself, and afterwards found things that I can celebrate about myself at this time while saying them out loud and looking at myself in the mirror 😍wow , I don’t know if you feel it , but I feel it , the power of this little thing , little practice.

Celebrating myself even the little things gives space for positive feelings to evolve. Gives space to do more because I’m already proud and feeling good, it gives space to create more and feel good about yourself.

Why better celebrate than punish

So , in that moment I could’ve acted from the feeling of being off center and said something bad about myself, but it is the small decisions that add up. So , I decided to find what I can celebrate about what I have done (small things too- like baking cookies) and what I am proud.

I do not like the idea of punishing myself into doing something, saying something bad about myself to do something ( for example, oh how stupid I am , can’t I just do it right ) . The emotion, the energy in that sentence is negative and I don’t want to create from that space , this kind of sentence has not been in my vocabulary for quite some time now, and can I tell you — it’s awesome!

So celebrating myself for trying, for what I have done , for example, I am proud of my willingness to try, I am celebrating that I tried. Or celebrating how I have worked on myself, how far I have come , how much have I grown.

One more example I can give is — I have been learning how to read oracle card. At times it goes great and I feel wonderful, but other times the channel and intuition doesn’t open or the energy is off. In that moment I do not punish myself, that would create a bigger block. Instead I thank myself for trying again, for keeping it up and I say that next time I will try again and maybe it will be different.

I have been using celebration, encouragement and gentleness for about a year now and it has changed much about how I feel about myself and overall daily.

I hope this gave you a good idea of how celebrating yourself makes it a different energy and can help .

Thank you for reading , I will see you next time!

With love 🙂
