]."Friendship with oneself is all important because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world." --

I like that phrase. It means that in order to love someone else, one needs to love thyself.
Spiritual wellness helps with the ability to not sabotage oneself and to be nice to thyself. It is important to realize that feeding your soul is more important than feeding your desire for things.
It is not good for someone to gain all the material possessions in the world, just to lose their soul.
I am not saying that you should feel guilty because you wanted a new dress, a new pair of pants, the new car, new drapes. It is only when you become obsessed with wanting all of them all the time. So, being friendly to oneself involves, usually, having a close relationship with a higher power, whatever that higher power might be for you. Jesus is the higher power for most people. We need that strength that can come only from that Almighty powerful source and being.
