Waking up in the morning, go to the mirror and carefully look at your reflection. Tell yourself: “I love myself! I love exactly the way I am. I love my eyes, nose, lips, ” and so on. Even if the sutra does not seem to you that the person reflected in the mirror is worthy of love, say it all the same. Such auto-training, if done regularly, cheers up and improves self-esteem.

Allow yourself a little luxury. Buy a CD with your favorite artist or treat yourself to strawberries with cream. Think of the things that give you real pleasure and do any of this right now. Put on your favorite clothes, just like that, for no reason. Or head to the park to feed the squirrels and birds. Learn to delight yourself daily. To do this, it is not necessary to do something large-scale and costly. Ordinary happiness and self-love begin with trifles.
