UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE
What is unconditional love and acceptance?
Loving and accepting unconditionally means this can be shared with no conditions. It is taking a risk to be open and vulnerable with another without pre-set limits. It is based on the belief that we are all divine and sacred. It does not mean we have to accept all behaviors or be a doormat. We can practice unconditional love and and accept with others simply for the fact that they are rather than what they do. This is also true of self as we can not truly unconditionally love and acceptance others without doing so with ourselves.
When you are the recipient of unconditional love and acceptance from others, you feel free to be yourself. You know your worth. You feel wanted and desired for you as you are rather than for what you do. You know you are worthwhile and valuable. You feel warmth, cared for, and nurtured. You are OK just the way you are. That there is no need to wear a mask or to act in any way just to please another. You feel free to be yourself and express your feelings with no fear of rejection or disapproval. You In unconditional love and acceptance, you risk being vulnerable with others You feel no fear of retribution or reprisal from others if you should make a mistake, experience a failure, disagree, etc.
Without unconditional love and acceptance
When people are not given unconditional love and acceptance, they feel constrained to act in ways which are inconsistent with their beliefs and feelings. They lack the freedom to be themselves. They live their lives trying to please others rather than listening to their own truth. They do not believe they have the freedom to experience the natural consequences of their own actions and decisions. They can become dependent on others to make them feel good about themselves. They also can become very rule bound and perfectionist in seeking to do what is "right'' or "expected'' of them in order to be accepted or loved. They are more likely to experience low self-esteem and feel unworthy. They feel misunderstood, not approved of, and defensive. They often have poor relationship skills and experience failed relationships. They tend to work harder at meeting conditions and expectations set for them by others than working at becoming self-directed, self-sufficient, and self-reliant. They can become withdrawn and isolated in order to avoid experiencing future rejection and disapproval. They confuse the need to follow rules and obey directions as the only way to be accepted and loved by others, believing they can never fail or make a mistake because they would never be worthy of love or acceptance from others. They do not learn how to accept and love themselves unconditionally and therefore are very self-critical, self-disapproving and self-punitive. They tend to set unrealistic, unachievable, and overly idealistic expectations of themselves which must first be met in order to accept and love themselves. They can become their own worst critic. Unconditional love and acceptance is the starting point of healing this.
