Loving yourself is looked down upon as selfish in many cultures. We'll dispel this myth and dive deep into why self-love is so important for your relationship success. We'll discuss how not loving yourself enough causes perfectionism, being overly critical, self-sacrificing and resentment. We'll discuss how this can create a martyr complex and cause resentments, lack of energy, and co-dependency. Then we'll provide some examples or ways you can love yourself and how this can help you as a parent and as a partner. You can also love yourself by forgiving yourself and being honest with yourself. This will help you show up to your relationship with your full vibrancy.
