February might be the month of love and romance, but no one focuses on one of the most important relationships we have- the one with ourselves. It's pivotal to our wellbeing to have a strong sense of self worth and above all else, love who we are and the body we're in. I gathered a list of quotes that represent that mindset for you to pick and choose which ones to use and remind yourself how awesome you are.

5. "Document the moments you feel most in love with yourself- what you're wearing, who you're around, what you're doing. Recreate and repeat."- Warsan Shire

6. "Your biggest commitment must always be to yourself."- Bridgett Devoue

7. "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."- Ralph Waldo Emerson

15. "Loving yourself starts with liking yourself, which starts with respecting yourself, which starts with thinking of yourself in positive ways."- Jerry Corstens

16. "You're always with yourself, so you might as well enjoy the company."- Diane Von Furstenberg

17. "Embrace the glorious mess you are."- Elizabeth Gilbert
