125 Beautiful Things To Love About Yourself (Self-Love Activity)

Have you ever thought about all the amazing things to love about yourself? Well, now is the chance to take note.

You have special qualities that make you, YOU, but how often do you take time to appreciate your uniqueness?

After all, taking an inventory of what you like about yourself is a great way to practice self-love and give yourself a boost of confidence at the same time.

A Word on Self-Love

Let’s begin with understanding what self-love is. As described in this article from PsychCentral…

“Self-love means that you accept yourself fully, treat yourself with kindness and respect, and nurture your growth and wellbeing.”

If you have a hard time practicing self-love, the good thing is this exercise can be extremely helpful.

You may have a hard time identifying things to love about yourself, or perhaps you’ve never even thought about what you like.

So, you may feel emotional, if you can’t think of anything. 

This is why it was important for me to create this list – because you deserve to focus on loving yourself and that begins with being aware of all your great qualities, and appreciating them.
