Use this meditation when you are avoiding problems. 1. Find a time to be alone. Stand in front of a mirror. 2. Speak out loud and tell yourself 3 things you like about yourself. Love yourself for having these good qualities. However, you are struggling with a particular issue. Admit it. 3. State out loud the problem you have with yourself. Repeat it 3 times. 4. Commit to resolving this problem within the next 24 hours. State your decided action out loud 3 times. 5. Congratulate yourself for courage and honesty in dealing with this personal issue. The meditation ends here.
