Dear yogi friends,
LET”S START WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON: YOU. Before you can love anyone or anything else fully, you have to learn to love yourself. How can we share what we don’t give ourselves?
If you increase how secure and loving you feel about yourself on the inside, you will attract more happiness and love from the outside.
To open your heart to love, you need to forgive yourself for your mistakes, for your past, for being judgemental. Then you need to forgive others. Let go of grudges, of anger, and just forgive.
Learn to appreciate others, to lavish praise on their achievements rather than constantly point out their mistakes.
We create our own reality: everything starts with our thoughts, attitudes, reactions. The more you wish others well , the more that same wish comes back to you. It takes a while to grasp this, , but once you do, it makes life so much easier and pleasurable.
Keep saying to people, and you’re also saying it to yourself: ‘You’ve no idea how beautiful you are, how wonderful. I appreciate what you do, I’m proud of you!’
Seek out the good in other people, and you’ll soon start to see it in yourself. People say, ‘I’m not going to have any relationships until I sort myself out, but the best way to sort yourself out is through relationships! So just be aware of how you react to people, what you wish for them.
The centre for love and compassion is heart. Related yoga poses to open this centre are backbends, also known as “heart openers.” They increase our sense of well-being, personal expansion, connection to the world around us and the ability to love selflessly.

‘Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.’ RUMI
