Writing a Love Letter to Yourself

One way to focus on the positives is by writing a love letter to yourself…

1. Get in a comfy and private spot to write. Being comfortable and safe will help you tune into your emotions especially if you are feeling vulnerable.
2. Pick your mode of writing. You may choose to use pen and paper, a journal, your computer, or enter it in our Your Life Your Voice Mobile App.  
3. Choose your writing style. There are multiple options to choose from: lists, paragraphs, bullets, or artwork.
4. Ask yourself the hard questions…
5. At the end of these self-reflections, write a sentence of self-love and support to yourself. Even though you might not completely agree with these statements now, in time you may begin to believe them to be true.

“Your self-worth is determined by you. You don't have to depend on someone telling you who you are."

If you don't have time to answer the questions listed above, try taking a moment out of your day just to say a few positive things about yourself. Empower yourself to be the positive change that you've needed all along, because being kind to yourself is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.
