I want you to write a love letter to yourself this Valentine’s Day. Why? Because you deserve it.
How often do you acknowledge yourself and how wonderful you are? How often do you demonstrate self-love?
If you’re anything like me, I’m sure it’s easy to forget.
This morning, I sat down and wrote myself a love letter. I was surprised because it was partially a list of character traits I was grateful for and a list of changes I want for myself- to be more present, to be less future focused, to enjoy the moment. I was surprised how much I appreciate myself for my wisdom, intuition, and big heart. As I wrote all of these things down, I felt my heart grow bigger and felt a lot of self-compassion.
If you can give any gift to yourself this Valentine’s Day, write yourself a love letter. Sit down, and put your heart, your mind, and your soul into it and see what comes up.
And if it’s hard to write yourself a love letter, do it for someone else. It’s often easier to buy chocolates or flowers on this holiday, but it’s much harder to open up and be vulnerable.
So give this a try. Let me know how it goes.
Happy Valentines Day!
Love (because I have a ton of it to give),
Danielle
