The way that you talk to yourself (and treat yourself) is important; as you've likely heard before — self-love isn't selfish. Put this one in the love file: Finishing off a couple weeks of loving here on Hurdle with Dr. Nina Polyné, a licensed clinical psychologist. We cover:

- Why is self-love important?

- What are self-love habits?

- Can affirmations be helpful in the adoption of a positive self-love practice?

- Can you have a positive association with self but still experience negative self-talk? How do you shake that?

- What is self celebration and why is it important?

- How to rid yourself of the shame that comes with prioritizing self
