If you have ever been at a point in your life when you were running the other direction from love, that's a challenge to consider when building a healthy self-love practice. If we weren't brought up to seek out loving relationships, then we may still be enacting this pattern unconsciously. Be very intentional about who you surround yourself with. Take a look at your relationships: are they loving? do they support your own self-love relationship? If not, evaluate what to do so that you can practice self-love within a community of love. Self-Love is independent but it doesn't happen in isolation. Also, Self-Love doesn't stop. It's constant, consistent, and is practiced on a continuum. Days where you "forget" to love yourself are signals that you're facing the challenge of a lack of love, or a penchant towards a lack of love, and it's time to reevaluate!
