99 Self-Love Affirmations for Self-Worth and Self-Acceptance: Cultivate More Love Within This Valentine's Week
Hello, beautiful soul!
Valentine’s Day is a time for love, but I want to invite you to take this week to focus on the most important relationship you’ll ever have—the one with yourself. Too often, we look to others for validation, approval, or love, but true self-love comes from within. It’s a practice, and it’s something you get to choose every single day.
Both personally and in my work, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it can be to nurture yourself with kind words and loving thoughts. That's why I’ve put together these 99 affirmations, designed to help you unlock your self-worth and practice radical self-acceptance.
Whether you prefer to see the words, hear them, feel them, or even say them aloud, I’ve included a variety of affirmations to suit all types of learner styles. So, no matter how you connect with yourself best, there’s an affirmation here for you.
At the end of this blog, I'll explain how best to work with the affirmations that resonate, depending on your learner style. If you're not sure what yours is, you can take a test to find out.
