Today is Day 22 of my 31 Days of Self-Love posts to celebrate Self-Love Month<\/a><\/strong> with suggestions for jumpstarting your own self-love.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>I\u2019m delighted to have Alice McCall<\/strong><\/a> as my guest today. Alice is a Cellular Level Healing Consultant, spiritual counselor and teacher, hypnotherapist, published author and inspirational speaker. Today she shares how to use love for healing and improving your life. Here\u2019s what she has to say:<\/p>\n

A New Year Gift For You!
\nby Alice McCall<\/strong><\/a>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are several gifts that only you can give yourself.
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Eating healthy
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A good exercise routine
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Taking the time for daily prayer & meditation
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Establishing a whole relationship with yourself<\/p>\n

You are the only person who can do these things for you.\u00a0 All are powerful gifts that have a positive effect on you. However, there is one more gift that seldom appears on the list; one that I invite you to give to yourself this New Year.<\/p>\n

*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sending Love to yourself and your body<\/strong>
\nThis gift costs no money and takes little time, yet has amazing rewards.<\/strong> Holding the vibration of love and love-based emotions within your body greatly affects all parts of you, including<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

*\u00a0\u00a0 Enhancing your ability to manifest
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Increasing your body\u2019s ability to heal and maintain optimum health
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Increasing your connection with the sacred vibration of earth
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Facilitating sending positive signals from the brain to every cell in your body
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Enabling your Chi energy \u2013 the energy from the Divine \u2013 to flow freely through your body
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Increasing your intuition, wisdom, and creativity
\n*\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Boosting your immune system<\/p>\n

When you love yourself, including the child within, it is very healing and affirming.\u00a0Unfortunately, it is possible to become bogged down in fear or fear based emotions, like worry, anxiety, or doubt.\u00a0This New Year, tap into your ability to change all of this, by giving yourself the gift of Love. It is okay to start small; try sending yourself love every morning or every night before bed.<\/p>\n

Consciously and intentionally send your self and your body the emotion of love.\u00a0Include love-based emotions like joy, peace, bliss, acceptance, and freedom.\u00a0It may be helpful to use a trigger like thinking about a newborn baby, sunsets, flowers, cartwheels, your favorite furry friend, or special people so you actually begin to feel the emotion sweep over you.\u00a0The most important thing is to use what resonates deeply within you.<\/p>\n

Close your eyes. Take a few deep breaths.\u00a0Create the emotion of love and send it to your heart.<\/strong> Fill your heart fully with this emotion.\u00a0Then see\/feel your heart sending these emotions to your brain, and your brain transmitting it to every cell in your body \u2013 filling you with the higher vibration of love.<\/p>\n

This simple exercise, done regularly, can be life changing. Do not be surprised if you start doing it in the middle of the day as well! Give yourself the best this New Year. Give yourself and your body Love.

In Alice McCall<\/strong><\/a> \u2019s practice she has found Love to be a powerful healing force. It was intentionally part of her self-healing routine with breast cancer, which you can learn more about at Wellness Wisdom<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0She uses this powerful energy as a core component of her successful transformative work with others.

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start & Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2613","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2613"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2613\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2622,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2613\/revisions\/2622"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
