Jumping on the Love Bandwagon

It’s that time of year when we are all reminded that we should be FEELING THE LOVE!!

I hope that you are.

 V-Day gets a bad rap, supposedly reminding us that things are not as great as they could be. But instead, let’s take the opportunity to remember how things ARE. The things we have control of that help us feel loved.

Whether you are in a romantic relationship or not, its a great week to think of some ways to shower yourself and your people with love. This does not have to cost money or be super extravagant.

➣ Maybe you can buy yourself your favorite chocolate, or warm drink.
➣ Maybe you can spend a few extra minutes massaging your own shoulders or feet.
➣ Maybe you can order your favorite food in and eat it in the bathtub! Ha!

I did all these things yesterday so I know they are possible! I had to buy some herbs for the postpartum herbal baths I make, so I splurged on myself and bought some yummy relaxing tea blends and dark chocolate covered ginger… YUM! I may or may not have indulged in those things in the bathtub…

If you are feeling less than loved… chances are the people you love are feeling the same. Can you plan something special for them? I feel like on V-Day we are tempted to wait and see if someone does something special for us… This year lets just stop all that nonsense and plan some fun that we will enjoy and invite someone along who could use that same fun!

➣ A dance party in the living room with some glow sticks to a meaningful play list
➣ A picnic in a blanket fort on the living room floor
➣ Feeding each other messy homemade fondue… anything fun and simple and special can go a long way with your kids, your romantic partner, and your heart.

Being pregnant or parenting gets super mundane and it's easy to get trapped in self pity and feeling like no one understands or cares.

Well I care.

Your baby cares.
              Your friends care.
                         Your higher self cares.

You are loved, my friend.
            You just gotta take a few breaths and remember.
                         You are not trapped.
                                  You are not alone.

You are a beautiful creation of God with a great purpose in this lifetime and a whole lot of love to give and receive! Let’s get to it!
