Love Yourself: Self-Love and Sexual Wellness

Don't let shame or societal norms hold you back from experiencing the fullness of your own sexuality.

As the old saying goes, "you can't love someone else until you love yourself." This rings true when it comes to sexual wellness as well. Loving yourself and exploring your own sexuality can lead to deeper and more fulfilling connections with others.

One way to explore your relationship with yourself is through journaling. Take some time to reflect on your thoughts and feelings about your own sexuality. What messages have you received from society or your upbringing about sex? How have those messages influenced your own beliefs and behaviours? Journaling can help you uncover any limiting beliefs or negative self-talk that may be holding you back.

Another way to express self-love is through self-pleasure. Many people feel shame or guilt around masturbation, but it can actually be a healthy way to explore your own body and desires. Take some time to experiment with different techniques and find what feels good for you. This can also be anything from taking a relaxing bath to going for a walk in nature. Find something that brings you joy and make it a regular part of your self-care routine. Remember, self-love is not only about physical pleasure but also about accepting and celebrating all aspects of yourself.
