10 Quotes To Make Your Fall In Love With Yourself


Self-love has a huge role to play to make our lives happy and meaningful, build confidence and self-acceptance.

However, the concept of self-love is much abused – it doesn’t mean accepting yourself as it is – this is an excuse to get away with all our unhealthy and toxic habits. Self-love involves introspecting – acknowledging our mistakes and consciously working on improving ourselves continuously.


  • Self-Love means prioritizing our dreams and trying new things and experiences to make your life more rich
  • It involves saying no to things, which you disagree with or those which fails to fit with your own plans – you don’t have to do something just coz others are doing it.
  • Self-love involves a strong decision to spend your time with only those people, who always motivate, encourage and support you.
  • Self-love doesn’t mean being stubborn – it also allows you to give concession to others and doing things to make them happy as you no longer feel threated if you aren’t in control.
  • It means loving yourself despite how you look with all your flaws– fat, short, acne, bad hair, bad teeth, complexion– but at the same time, respecting yourself so that you make wholesome choices and live healthy – ie do not abuse your body.
  • When you truly love yourself, you do not bother about competing with others on silly things

How to Make a your own Natural Sunscreen at Home

I have been meaning to write this blog post for a while as I have received calls from many of you requesting me to make a natural sunscreen. However, I have been unsuccessful in making a stable product with adequate protection. So I’m offering you some simple recipes that you can try yourself. We can’t deny the benefits of using a sunscreen – It prevents premature ageing, reduces tanning and the chances of skin cancer due to sun exposure.
