Message : My Younger Self-How to Love Me

Namaste Dorothy!

I think Dorothy is a Healer. She is a natural when delivering psychological insights and promoting self-love. One of the best! Thank you!

Needed this

This channel has some of my favorite lessons. I found myself hanging on to every word Dorothy said. Needed this for the situation I was in.

Best advice

This is so true, honest and helpful. I needed to remind myself of this this morning. Thank you for this wisdom.

This made me cry from happiness

Self doubt is the only thing standing between me and happiness and it’s a choice to believe in yourself and you have every reason to

Believe in yourself

I will delight in the love of myself. I have written in my heart pure love and prayers of peace.

Love myself and my body

I learn that i need to love myself more , And my body more, because its the only place i lived in. Thank you , its really mean so much to me

Reminder

What a nice reminder to love yourself and not give up on yourself

I feel loved

I have struggled with liking, much less loving, myself for my entire life. I have searched for, hoped for, prayed for that magic thing that would change how I felt about myself. That thing isn’t out in the world. That thing is in me. I have noticed that through my practice of mindfulness, of noticing the thoughts, feelings, emotions, physiologic responses of my body to external events, and thereby taking the time to choose how I respond, to choose the words I say to myself, I now see me as this incredible, honest, beautiful woman and mother and lover who can take on the world. And now, now I know that I can. And — the very best, most intensely powerful wonderful thing about me loving me, is that I am open to love from another. I am open to love that adds to me, doesn’t define me, and supports me to do the things I love to do. I am now able to define myself by the love I can create with another, and the me that I am is an equal part of that love. The things that I do to take care of me first, feed that love. I can now see and understand the analogy of a love relationship being a newborn baby. That baby must be cared for, attended to, intentionally thought about, and fed. That knowledge is the greatest gift I have ever received.

You are responsible for how you feel

That struck a chord with me especially in the context they used it, of someone saying something nice about you and making you feel good. This just happened to me yesterday at my old job and I felt so good. I felt needed and acknowledged -things I could not feel for myself. I have struggled with self image and self esteem for decades. But we don’t need others to give us these feelings. We control the way we feel, not others. Giving others control over us we lose our power. But we have the power and control over ourselves and our feelings, our lives and our actions - not reactions. I am learning today that I don’t need acknowledgment and confirmation from an outside source, that everything I need is within.

i feel sure.

it is a long journey to come to love yourself, and i don't think it is ever quite complete. thank you for this reminder. every single one of us has so much beauty and purpose and meaning within us. thank you for reminding me to show love and nurture to myself.

Helped me a lot

I noticed that after this I felt calm and it kept going through my mind. This is a great way to learn to love yourself and to know that others love you.

Just before bed

Perfect message to hear just before or 1st thing in the morning remember to love yourself you are important

Loving myself

I learned that there are people who love me for who I am, not for what I look like but for who I am as a person, my family who I hold dear to me all love me. My friends who have been there for me when my family can’t be, they support me and love me. For that I am thankful

i love myself no matter what

no matter how hard i can continue i did it for 18 years and a can do for far more

i love myself no matter what

no matter how hard i can continue i did it for 18 years and i can do for far more

Love herself

I’ve always believed I’ve loved myself a lot. That I can except me for everything that I am. I’m going to recommend this to my friend because she need help on loving herself and I’ll always be there to help her. ❤️❤️

Love myself

I felt a lot of emotion because my younger self used to love her self so much and sometimes I forget that I am beautiful as I am and I matter and I’m a good person I should always love myself regardless if others don’t love me or think I’m beautiful because I am special 💕

calming

I noticed that I am much more able to let go of worries and stress, and therefore wind down for a good nights sleep with this

Monday

I’ve been going through a rough time truly being myself and embracing that, self love is something I struggle with but I will continue to take it one day at a time.

I feel peaceful.

I learned, or rather remembered, that i too often forget that I can be just where I need to be each moment.

Me

I’ve learnt that I have always been focused on how I looked when I should be focused on my personality not looks

Centering Thought

I learned that in-order to face the world and have positive outcomes I must have a positive relationship with myself. By saying I Love you to myself I am setting the tone as well as changing my view of myself. By having this inner dialogue I am changing my mind set to one that is whole, centered and at peace.

9/5/18

I noticed that when I haven’t used this app I feel worse because I’m stressing about everything else

Insecure

When I read the title of this audio, I thought it was going to be just another confidence booster that would make me feel okay for a few minutes, then I would go back to normal. Turns out, I was completely wrong. This audio really made me think, and I’m definitely inspired to write letters to my future and past self!!

Self doubt

Feeling raw emotion is difficult Even more so when it’s an avalanche Today marks the day I start to better myself and to do it for the only person I haven’t focused on, myself. It’s my time and these words have really helped me hit the ground running. Thank you

Self love

You’ll have to love yourself before loving someone else. You’re always responsible for what you feel.

Loving...

What a great meditation! Wisdom, Responsibility, Courage & Love... I believe these are the 4 corner posts to an authentic life well lived. Wisdom to align with the mind of God to know the right thing to do. Responsibility to want to always do the right thing, at the right time, for the right reason. Courage to actually take action, in the face of danger, regardless of fear Love - for a God who allows us to Choose Love - for others who need us to act, Love - for ourselves to have Courage to Choose Wisely & take Responsibility for our actions regardless of the outcome. Now get up, get in there & give it another shot!! That is what I would have wanted to tell my younger self. ❤️☮️🍀

woah

I learned that it's like ok to slow down. I shouldn't always put everyone before me and I should always love myself because there is only one me.

love yourself

I learned that I am responsible for my feelings, and how I react to them. I can choose to love myself, even on bad days.

I am loved

people do love and care for me. just because she no longer is with me doesnt mean she doesn't care about me still.

Today

I learned that I need to forgive myself. I learned that holding onto my younger sins do nothing for me today. I am strong enough and I’m grateful for that in Jesus.

love yourself

this is a great one. hard to accept sometimes when you are feeling down. I need to whip this one out for when I am feellng really depressed.

A Message to My Younger Self

I wish I had heard this message when I was younger, but it’s a terrific message for my older self, too. ♥️🙏♥️

Strength

I learnt that I've never been loved, not by family or friends, as they have always tried to change who I truly am while growing up. So the message of remembering you are loved for exactly who you are does not apply to me. But even so, and perhaps through that, I have learnt that I am stronger than I thought possible. And I will continue to use that strength as I move forward.

Learning to love yourself

Sometimes it’s really hard to think of yourself as an beautiful, smart and good person. Sometimes we just really think bad of ourselves which can lead us to giving up sometimes. Of course you should never feel like this you should always think of yourself as the best always all the time every minute and second. When you learn to love yourself...that’s gonna be the moment you truly found your happiness

no

I like that it includes love of pets, but you know what, sometimes you're sad because your brain chemistry is off and it's not a personal choice, failing, or something you can control.

A Message To My Younger Self

What a wonderful way to start my morning. These affirmations were so beautiful. I have let myself drift so very far away from my joyful, carefree and wonderful days. I need to remind myself that the path is waiting. That I must keep moving.

Uncertain

I really liked this session. I’m uncertain if it will work for me personally. It takes me at least 2 hours to fall asleep and I find trying to take a nap impossible. It’s come to the point now that I am tired all day and can’t sleep at night.

I AMMM SOOOOOOO STRESSSEDDDD I DUNNO WHAT TOOO DOOO??? I AM ALSO PRESSURED I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO I DON'T KNOW IF I'M MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY I DON'T KNOW IF I'M ME..... I JUST... DON'T UNDERSTAND MYSELF?!??!? LIKE DUDEEEE I AM HAPPY BUT I DON'T THINK I CAN MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY... IT'S HARD TO MEET OTHER PEOPLE'S STANDARDSSSSSS BWHHAHAHAAHHA I LOVE MY LIFEEEE JUST KEEP SMILING FAITH😘😘😘 I LOVE YOUUUU -F6@

Control

You are NOT your feelings. Loving yourself really is the key. You do matter and what other people say or expect of you does not matter. Be yourself.

Reminder

This helped me to remember to take care of myself first, to make myself feel good before everyone else and of course to love who I am.

confident

I felt proud of my quirks and unique features and it made me really appreciate everything I have in life

Love ME no matter what!

A consistent current of love should always flow through me for by me no matter what! No one is going to love me like me. My love must resonate from within and by doing so my internal love will reflect outwardly for all to know how deep my self love goes. If my love for myself is secure from within, I can love others just as much and just as strong.

Feelings

I learned that I am responsible for how I feel. Nothing is more powerful than our brain and so the reality affects us the way we let it from our mind.

love

I learned that mabye, just mabye someone out there loves me and that they're just waiting for the right moment

Reflective

I must love and accept myself completely without reservation. It is then that I will be at peace with who I am. I cannot move forward in strength until I realize my worth and just be. Me.

Reflective

I must love and accept myself completely without reservation. It is then that I will be at peace with who I am. I cannot move forward in strength until I realize my worth and just be. Me.

Reflection

I noticed that listening to this positive message I still felt doubt towards myself. Imagining me talking to myself with these kind words felt foreign but also hopeful. Hopeful that one day I can view myself with love and positivity

Learning to love myself

I have had a lot of trouble in seeing the good in myself when it seems like no one else around me sees it. I have been hurt by the ones I love and trusted the most and that is what feels the worst. This has helped me to realize the good in my life and has shown me how to see the good in myself

Good things are coming

I sometimes need that reminder that life is a journey and not a race. Lately I have been finding myself rushing towards things that are superficial and make me happy. In the moment they do but happiness is only temporary. I need to find ways to make myself happy on my own without these superficial things. Day 1

Reminder to love myself. I am responsible for my feelings.

To love myself and not be afraid of failing and be unloved

That there is always someone there for you

Love myself

Always love myself

I learned that I am not alone

Be yourself and nothing but yourself 🥰

To love myself and let people love me

To love myself

Your happiness does not rely solely on other people or their approval/attention. Your happiness comes from you. Your worth comes from you. You deserve to believe in yourself. And you have to. Because no one else can provide you with the love you deserve from yourself. Always remind yourself of who you are and to always stay true to yourself. The only person you need approval from is you. Those who truly care for you will love you for who you are, not for who you pretend to be.

Love myself

I need to focus on myself more

How to care for yourself and love who You are no matter how upset you are.

The strongest

This was the strongest session i had so far with Aura. I would love to spread these 3 Minutes to the world and wish I was the Sandman, to bring it to everyone before sleep.

Still the strongest

My mind can understand and integrate new vantage points, play through new concepts and embrace them. The way to integrate all new things, that are more serving, then faces non-serving habits of thought throughout the day. So, I understand that my human personality needs a little nudge or assistance to ingest the new. Because feeling good is not like a college degree, that once you‘ve achieved it, it stays there on the wall in a frame. Repetition is what helps the conscious mind the most and so I return to this nugget today.

Affirmed

It has been a while since I’ve taken the time to meditate. I highly encourage others to do so but I haven’t been. I’ve been telling myself that it is time to begin again, refocus. This was a nice session. Helpful. An affirmation that it is time. Namaste

Powerful message

It ensured a great start of my day. I’m so thankful for the chance to connect to my younger self and tell him everything is alright.

I felt anxious and now I’m feeling better

I learned that emotions are just temporary. I’m working on remembering just that the next time I feel so anxious

Timely

I have been working with the idea that I am enough, just the way I am. This meditation was exactly what I needed today. Thank you for sharing it.

Beautiful being

I learned that I am love and I am worthy of it but In order for me to love myself I have to be willing to see myself fully and be okay and proud of the person I am I have to learn to love myself before I love anyone else

Love for Dorothy

Thankyou Dorothy for this beautiful message of kindness. I have tears of joy and comfort knowing that love always exists...within me💝

Self love

Such a powerful message that I often forget. Self love is so important!

Self love

I need to remind myself this everyday when I feel down . I have to love myself

Loving Myself

I learned that I have never really loved nor trusted myself, my opinions, my reality. This has caused me shame, misery, doubt, and unending pain. As a child, the treatment from my father that began as severe negligence (ignoring my presence, disinterested in my interests, wants, or needs), then physical abuse at 14, and ending with abandonment into a horrific nightmare that he planned for. My mother and I suffered without stable housing, the car breaking down, shortage of food, and abandoned by those we called family. I remember always being singled out in school, tormented by other kids, raped, then constantly threatened physically. I remember in seventh grade, when I began shaking all the time, sweating through my clothes, and feeling so estranged from “normal”. I remember when I was diagnosed with scoliosis at 14. I remember the head orthopedic surgeon showing my X-ray of my spine to my parents and telling them I needed surgery. I remember my father actually doubting that this X-ray was from my back and saying that it could be anyone’s. I remember the pain stopping me from being able to work or go to school physically. I remember trying every other venue of treatment for 3 years, and the curvature doubled. I do not want to be a slave to pain, to my past, to shame, to trauma, or to fear any longer. I want the strength to be strong. I want the ability to heal and grow. I want to learn to love myself because I never have.

Me

I learned that I have never fully loved myself and that's partly why I feel the way I do about myself.

A message to my Young Self

Do not give up on what you believe in: it is too early to compromise your interests, to settle for the comfortable way. Go, experience, adventure yourself. Ridiscover yourself in many different guises, and then understand what makes you feel best. Do not settle for half truths, half friendships, nor half achievements. Keep holding on to what is truly important for you. Go beyond.

Im trying I just ....... yeah....

I’ve always loved myself I just forget to tell myself now I forget a lot I love this t he thank you Dorothy

This message touched me deeply

This message reminded how much I don’t love myself. I’ve never had, since I was little, and I’m 36 and I haven’t learned yet. I have everything I could ask for, a loving family, a good job, a healthy body, but I’m still stuck on how much I suck in everything, how much other people are smarter than me, how much weight I have to lose to be beautiful, how I will never find a man that loves me and that I love back. I’ve felt sad since I remember myself as a person. Sometimes I just want to disappear. I want to be happy, but I just can’t.

Becoming aware

I’ve been coming to a realization that I am regularly feeling critical of myself even though I haven’t been aware of it. In fact, I thought I was positive and loving toward myself and this has come as a surprise. I’m also noticing my (almost) constant muscle tension. Its very hard to relax. I find it very hard to get into meditation and wonder if there is a connection.

But how?

I understand that you should loce yourself, but how? How do you get to that point??

On learning

I learnt that learning is hard because there is so much to learn. I learnt to learn from almost everyone, in different ways. I learnt the power of gratitude 🙏 for it breeds abundance. Or letting go of the old and waiting for the new. Namaste

Where did I go ?

I learned or should say remember that my younger self was full of spirit, happiness, and joy! I was always smiling, likely the most cheerful in the room during difficult times. I looked at the big world ahead of me and was ready to take on all of life’s challenges. Nothing would stop me! I now sit here at age 38 and wonder where did I go ? This is not me ... I used to be so carefree and happy. I never isolated myself or felt sad. I learned I need to remember who I am !!!! This person sitting here tonight is NOT ME! My husband, my girls, my family and friends must all be so worried .... I need to find my younger self again or I should say find me.

I’m Feeling Better About Myself Now…

I learned that it really is important to be kind to myself-a wonderful reminder! Thank you for this-I’m definitely going to listen to it again!

I am a very private person

And that is ok. I don’t have to tell my story, past, present or future. Thoughts, feelings or reflections. I don’t have to explain or defend any of my choices

Those who love me

Feeling sad… and brought to tears as I think about those who love me and how they would feel if I was not around anymore… I am sad yes but I know that I am important to many. It’s just hard because I struggle to love myself and I do that struggling in silence many times - feel like a broken record complaining to friends about it so I Cry when I’m alone. I constantly fight internally about being kind to myself, to love me as I would to my family, to my friends when they are in a sad place. I will continue that fight…

I felt able to let somethings go

I hold on to things that I didn’t even know to watch it grow

Self love

To love myself. Even if it feels like some days no one does

Self love

I can’t believe it has taken me this long to figure out I was the one who could have changed my life. I love me now as I love the little child I once was. Things would have been so different Way back when.

Feeling low

I started talking to a couple guys and when no one calls or texts I start to let those negative feelings and thoughts to rush in. I look for validation from other people. People that aren’t good for me. People that are unavailable when I need people. I need to be okay with being by myself. Alone. It’s okay. I am pretty amazing. I am worth real love. I am a valuable human being.

This bears re-listening

This is one I downloaded to re-play, especially on those days when I am hard on myself. I really appreciate having this recording at hand.

Love Myself

Firstly, your message is brilliant. I feel as though you were speaking to me,sitting across from me in my home. As though your words were meant only for me to hear. So intimate, so right to my heart. Every sentence a truth of how I once lived or how I live now. I listened twice so I could write down your words. Blessings on you, Dorothy.

Brilliant and Needed

So on point - where I am on my path a pure gift this beautiful morning
