Self-Love is Always the Answer "Love is in need of love..." Thank you for those words Stevie Wonder. And I would tweek it slightly to say that love is in need of Self-Love today. How can we allow our bodies to become unhealthy, overweight, and stressed out, if we truly love ourselves?

I have adopted a practice to embrace my human-ness. After I feel like I have "messed up" or "didn't say the right thing," I find a mirror and look right in my eyes.
