Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is just a few days away! In honor of this day of love, let’s practice the art of unconditional love for ourselves and others.   

Unconditional love isn’t something we hold aside for just our children, a few family members who haven’t done things to make us unhappy lately, and maybe for our pets.  It’s a feeling that we have for anyone in our lives, regardless of who they are.

And yes, that means your loud neighbor. That woman at the office who never makes a fresh pot of coffee. And yes, even your ex. (gasp!)    

It doesn’t mean you have to agree with all of their beliefs or approve of their actions. And it certainly doesn’t require you to invite them over for coffee. It just means that when you think of that person, you get to feel love. And love always feels better, amiright?    

Don’t think of it as giving away some of your power to them. Think of it as letting go and being free of the burden of negative thoughts and emotions keeping you in the past. It is a gift that you give to yourself. And it’s with you 24/7, everywhere you go, forever.   xoxo
