Why you should trust your "I love myself because" statement

People, including you, are a seamless continuation of nature and part of the web of life. However, we live very nature-disconnected lives.

Your revised sentence "tricks" your nature disconnected sense of reason and language to become more conscious of the natural systems in you.

Can you validate that the changed sentence: "I like (or love) myself because (2)_____" describes some natural aspect of yourself, your inner child or inner nature. How do you feel about yourself in this light? Does it feel right?

You can be absolutely sure that some part of you is described by this sentence because it is that part of you that found and had the ability register the part of a natural area that you found attractive in the first section of the activity.

"What we are looking for is what is looking."

- St. Francis of Assisi.


If reading the sentence makes you feel uncomfortable, search your life for at least one incident, example or dream relating to the sentence that feels right or accurate. Perhaps you can imagine or create one, if necessary. You might ask a friend to help you find this part of yourself. Friends usually can see past your self-doubts.

Your sentence may be a metaphor. Try to find examples of parts of yourself that accurately match this metaphor. Remember that sometimes you have been taught to deny them, because they are your nature, and, in our nature-separated society, like a weed, nature is usually conquered, not supported. For this reason, many people have trouble admitting shamelessly they are naturally beautiful, strong, worthy, etc.
