Happy Valentine's Day. Maybe you're pregnant, maybe you're holding that new baby on this cold, wintery day, or perhaps you're an experienced parent. Whatever stage you're in, let this day be about loving yourself. Because when you love yourself, you're better able to love those around you.
So, what does this look like? Well, it's going to look differently depending on your needs, where you are in life, your life's circumstances.
You may find that loving yourself means
Happy Valentine's Day! May you be left feeling loved!!
So, what does this look like? Well, it's going to look differently depending on your needs, where you are in life, your life's circumstances.
You may find that loving yourself means
- taking a warm bubble bath with your favorite beverage and reading material
- scheduling out massage sessions every month (or every other month or quarterly)
- meeting your good friend for a meal, a drink, or an event in the community (art opening, movie, yoga class)
- hiring someone to help you around the house or with your child(ren) (i.e., mother's helper, babysitter, housecleaner)
- turning a blind eye to the chores around the house while you nap, read, watch your favorite TV show
- buying a new outfit that you absolutely love (don't stress about the size! Buy what fits and feels comfortable!)
- meditating, praying, or spending time in nature
- going to the library and browsing through the books and magazines without meeting anyone else's needs
Happy Valentine's Day! May you be left feeling loved!!
