Self love is being able to put yourself first, taking care of your well-being, treating yourself here and there, gifting yourself, self indulgence. It is a lot of self self self but do not confuse it with selfishness as it is important to understand yourself, take care of yourself before you can put the needs of others forefront.

That is what it is, you can only give love when you have it in yourself. Tips on self love
