New Year, New Be You
In a world that constantly encourages you to change, it's bold to be yourself.
Most New Year’s resolutions involve changing something about yourself, taking something away, or adding something else. And change is great if that’s what you want, but we’d like to encourage you to embrace yourself in 2022.
Learning to love yourself—to really learn who you are and how to love all the parts of you that feel hard to embrace—is the best New Year’s resolution we can think of.
And what makes a resolution? It’s defined as a firm decision to do something. And determining to love and accept yourself as you are is a conscious choice. Self-love, self-assuredness, and confidence don’t just happen. It’s a learned practice you have to work toward every day. And it is so worth it.
The best part about being yourself is that there’s no one else who could do it. You are the only you and that’s pretty special. Welcome your quirks, the unique features of your personality.
If you’ve got something you’re into or something you have always wanted to explore, we’ve got something to help. Exploring your sexuality is a great way to explore yourself. You like what you like, and you deserve the freedom to indulge in the things that make you feel happy and fulfilled. And if you haven’t discovered what does it for you yet, that’s part of the fun.
You have to live in your body, in your head for your whole life. While you’re here, let’s find ways that make you feel alive. It’s important to find things that make your life feel like you’re living your life to the fullest: spiritually, physically, emotionally, sexually.
This New Year, focus on finding and falling in love with who you are.
It’s a new year—be you.
Happy New Year from your friends at Lion’s Den.
