Every moment is worth appreciating. Whether you are reaching for new kinds of balance, success or guidance for something else, know everything in life is speaking to you. Loving yourself and the world more consciously involves raising awareness of how you think and feel now and how this is reflected in and by the external world. Notice what you are overlooking.
Notice what you overlook. Be empowered. Reflect on ten ways you can love yourself more:
1) Nurture the Physical Body- notice what you feed your body and how you care for it. Raise awareness of how ingestion, digestion and elimination are really going. Be aware this is a feedback system. The state of the physical body is a pointer to the state of your energy body.
2) Strengthen the Energy Body- notice the essence of being is energy and energy surrounds the physical body. Whole, natural, raw and organic foods are rich in electromagnetic energy. Exercise, deep breathing, Qigong, Tai Chi, gardening, walking barefoot on earth, being outside in the sun and fresh air and near vegetation, prayer and meditation all invigorate the energy body.
3) Read the Emotional Body- notice emotions are a gauge for how well you are listening to the heart. The more positive emotions you experience, the truer you are being to yourself. The more negative emotions arising within you, the more you resist what the heart knows is right for you at this stage of life. Emotions offer insight into your organs, systems and energy and how near or far you are to peace. The more you understand, identify and release emotions, the more you get messages your bodies are sending you and the more you show love to your true self.
4) Address Imbalances- notice loving yourself implies being interested in why you do the things you do, why you think and feel as you do. make connections Notice the power of awareness to help identify what ails you and different approaches you can take to alleviate the suffering. Nobody knows you better than you can know yourself. Acupuncture, homeopathy, flower essences, aromatherapy, deep muscle massage like Rolfing, Therapeutic Touch, Reiki, sound therapy, other forms of energy medicine, intuitive counselling, and meditation all help reveal and address imbalances or mis-alignments.
5) Do Yoga- notice yoga is a mind, body and spirit practice which stems from ancient India. Its aim is to connect with the divine and raise awareness of the feeling state of permanent peace. Various styles of yoga combine physical poses, breathing and meditation techniques. Classes exist for all levels from beginner to advanced. Do yoga to be aware of muscles and abilities you did not know you have. Discover where you hold tension or blocks to balance and well-being.
6) Be aware of Etheric Bodies- notice "etheric" generally means not visible to the naked eye. Recognize you are like an iceberg with the physical, 'visible' part of you like the part of the iceberg that is above water and the larger part of you like the much bigger part of the iceberg hidden to the eye under water. Loving yourself fully implies being open to exploring those things about yourself do not see or understand with the familiar senses. That which you resist persists.
7) Appreciate Spontaneity- notice that impulsive, spontaneous behaviour enables you to take an invisible load off, de-stress and somehow breathe easier. No need to explain it, simply attune to impulses and explore them. The urge to drop what you are doing and be light-hearted has a place. Dance in the rain, blow bubbles, have a pillow fight or do what comes naturally. This is orienting you to what the heart knows. Love only knows love. Relish the signs and signals.
8) Listen Differently- notice that true listening is not limited to the physical ears and related organs. Listening deeply involves detecting feelings, intuition, exploring dreams, dream symbols or dream therapy, unexplainable reasons you are drawn to particular people, conditions or experiences. Listen without the ears. See everything is communicating. How accurately you listen to others, reveals how well you are actually listening to yourself.
9) Expand your Horizons- notice excitement and energy you generate when you undertake something new. Doing something new makes you feel more awake and alive. Its healthy and uplifting to challenge yourself when you feel inspired and joyful. Never take sparks of curiosity or positive feelings for granted. They direct you in ways that are true to the heart.
10) Enjoy Nature more- notice that being in nature is not about where you go, it is about being in the now moment and observing how nature does this. Surround yourself with the harmony of nature and see this as a mirror for what is going on inside yourself. This has nothing to do with what you may have done in the past or could be in future. See what nature does without thinking. be like the water. Go with the flow. Be like a tree. Bend in the wind.

Notice to what degree we are willing to allow non-physical worlds and energies to be a conscious aspect or guide in our practical experience. How are we aware of this? To sense the physical body, judge it, label it, is not really awareness. To be aware of non-physical being is real awareness. Every instant we sense we know someone is coming before we hear them knock, that we tune into the vibration before they ring us by phone or enter our dreams, this validates and reinforces multidimensional reality. This expands consciousness through direct acceptance.
