I am young and beautiful... at every age.

I do not fix problems. I fix my thinking. Then problems fix themselves.

I release all criticism. I only give out that which I wish to receive in return. My love and acceptance of others is mirrored to me in every moment.

Loving the self, to me, begins with never ever criticizing ourselves for anything. Criticism locks us into the very pattern we are trying to change. Understanding and being gentle with ourselves helps us to move out of it. Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.

When we forgive and let go, not only does a huge weight drop off your shoulders, but the doorway to your own self-love opens.

As I change my thoughts, the world around me changes.

Your words are so powerful and precious. Learn to harness them, guide them and let them work for you.
