Research shows a strong association between mindfulness, elevated self-esteem and happiness, and lowered anxiety - each of which makes it easier to practice self-love. What's more, it becomes easier to recognize the negative thoughts and feelings that often get in the way of us appreciating ourselves. 

Neuroscience proves that our brains rewire as we practice wholesome thoughts, and in doing so we rewire our inner critic and boost our self worth and esteem.
