Ese cariño por uno mismo merece ser nuestra mejor historia de amor, tal como hoy lo es para nuestra protagonista de portada, Ela Velden, quien tras atravesar por una ruptura amorosa y haberse enfrentado a diversos retos, tanto a nivel personal como profesional, asegura haber encontrado el amor más especial: “Lo llamo ‘el renacer de Ela Velden’ porque sí viví una tormenta emocional que me sacudió de pies a cabeza, pero eso me hizo abrir los ojos y darme cuenta de la falta de amor propio que tenía. Ahora estoy empezando a ser quien quiero ser y me estoy amando más que nunca”.
¿Qué representa hoy para ti el amor propio?
Es aceptarme tal cual soy, tener la vida que quiero y luchar por mis sueños. No solamente se trata de verme en el espejo y aceptar mi reflejo, pues, según lo veo, este amor va más allá de ello; es un sentimiento que nace del interior, donde en realidad me pude descubrir.
¿Qué lugar ocupa en la actualidad dicho amor en tu vida?
En fechas recientes, muchas cosas en mi vida han cobrado otro sentido; tal es el caso de este sentimiento, pues hoy lo tengo claro: antes que el amor romántico está el amor propio, y mi salud mental es una prioridad.
¿Podrías decir que hoy, más que nunca, estás en contacto con tus sentimientos?
Totalmente. Nunca debemos hacer menos a nuestros sentimientos, frente a nada, sino vernos desde nuestro lado humano, claro, aunque sin victimizarnos.
¿Te permites sentirlo todo?
