When is the right time to marry myself? The short answer is..... you will just know.
My journey to self-marriage began when I watched the Tracy McMillan Ted Talk, "The Person You Really Need to Marry" in 2017. Something deeply resonated in me. An American author, TV writer and self claimed relationship expert, McMillan talks about the most important relationship of all.... the one we have with ourself. Her message in this Ted Talk is about love, finding yourself, and how failure can be a very powerful teacher .
When you’ve done the necessary inner work, the idea of self-marriage may feel right for you. As a celebrant I’ve witnessed first hand the great power of intent that personalised vows spoken aloud before family and friends have.
Making vows to yourself is no different. It’s your time to make a line in the sand and step over that line into becoming a more loving and kind person to yourself. It's making a promise to yourself to continue to practise the sometimes difficult work of self-care. And when that time comes, you will fully embrace the joy of walking yourself down the aisle and entering into a beautiful committed relationship with yourself, vowing never again to leave “YOU”.
"Loving myself exactly where I am, is the only way to get where I'm going"
