BigGirlPantiesOn Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 How to receive the love you want. Maybe the love you had or maybe new love from a new person: 1. Love yourself Are you sitting in your misery, so depressed because you've been dumped, waiting for him/her to come back to you? How is this loving yourself? Who would want to return to a person emitting this negative energy? Become the person your ex mate or new love wants and needs in their life. How do we love ourself? Doing "lovable" things. What would you tell your best friend who was giving up the things they once loved to do? Now do it. You don't have to "feel" like doing it, you just have to do it. Did you love getting mani's and pedi's? Love to go to the movies, spending girl nights with your friends. Going to sporting events with your pals. Working out. Practice extreme self care. For me, I am returning to working out after blowing it off for 2 months. I am loving my body by taking care of it. I am eating better. I dress up every day for work, taking care to wear colors and styles that flatter me. It makes me feel good about me. I went to a spiritual retreat this weekend. Cried going up, and coming back. But had many beautiful moments in between and replensihed my soul with time with many people who love me. I fed my body, mind and soul. 2. Being of service to others The most significant way to get outside of my mind and misery is to help others. I reach out to friends who have problems and need someone to listen, or hug and just care. Asking how I can be of service can make someone feel so valued. I return my shopping cart from the parking lot so I give the bag boy one less hassle. I smile at the cashiers and say thanks for your help. I compliment the people at work who do me favors. I give because I get in return. Self esteem, self respect, self worth. I do it when I don't feel like doing it. 3. Prayer and meditation Doesn't matter if you don't believe in God. Pray to your dog if he gives you love. Meditation calms and soothes my mind. I turn the whirling derbish that lives in my head over to a power greater than I. Spiritual law says what you put out into the world, will return to you. Give love to you and others and it WILL be returned to you. Maybe from the one you want or maybe from the one that the universe has in store for you. Try it. I am. 2
