What's the most loving thing you can do for yourself today?

It's February! The stores are full of hearts and candy and Valentine's is just around the corner. 

Whether you're a fan of Valentine's or not, love is something we all need. Loving ourselves well is one of the most healing and revolutionary things we can do living within systems that constantly question our worth. When we can treat ourselves with the same care, kindness and generousity we give to those we love, everything shifts. 

Our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health are all tied up in our experience of both giving and receiving love. Some form of the "golden rule" is found across most cultures and spiritual frameworks and it essentially says, "Love yourself well so that you can love others well". You have to start with you. 

So what's the most loving thing you can do for yourself today? Maybe it's going to bed early, maybe it's toning down the self-criticism and giving yourself validation or a compliment, maybe it's prioritizing your own needs and not letting guilt get in the way of what nourishes you. Pause for a minute and listen. How do you want to be loved?
