Start with Self Love for Lasting Peace

Happy Valentine's Day, sure, but Happy Self Love Day, too. Why? Is this just some hipster cliché rejecting this longtime celebration of partnership? Nah. I suggest to you here that:

Self-love is the foundation of all love in our life experience.

The work we do on ourselves, to move from wherever we are, to wherever we want to go, is a gift to ourselves from love, (while I suggest that the resistance and rejection of this work to honor ourselves in becoming the best we can be is the opposite of same).

Today, in this moment, whether single or married, or in partnership, or whathaveyou, explore this moment and all of your moments today. Try to begin exploring your life with a consideration and eye on your actions and behaviors. Do you experience your life from a place of self-love? Or not?

If not, it's ok; there's no pressure or judgement, we all have our stuff. But our work here will be to find the way for each of us into these higher vibrating states of love, so that you too can manifest and create and realize everything you've ever wanted, which I suggest to you now, you deserve.

My gift to you today, check out this empowering piece on self-love below.  I feel you'll dig it, as I did.

Alignment: When Your Work, Values & Life Stop Pulling in Different Directions

I care less about perfect balance than alignment: whether the way I spend my days supports what I say matters, and whether my work, values, relationships and ambitions are moving in compatible directions.

Meditation, Space & the Value of Hearing Yourself Think

For me, meditation is less about escaping thought than creating enough space to notice it. Quiet can reveal what constant stimulation, urgency and momentum keep covered up.
