With Valentine’s Day approaching, we are all reminded of love.  Although VDay is a holiday rooted in cheesy romantic gestures and consumerism, it’s also an opportunity to pause and reflect. During a time that puts romantic love all in our face, I want to remind you to focus on the relationship that matters most — the one with YOU!

“The most exciting, challenging, and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you that you love, well, that’s just fabulous.” – Carrie Bradshaw, SATC 

Love is defined as an intense feeling of deep affection. When you think of the word love — what name comes to mind? Who do you love? Why do you love them? It can be easy to answer these questions when thinking of romantic, familial, or even platonic love. However, what about self-love? Do you love yourself? Do you take care of your body +  mind + spirit? Do you treat yourself the way you want to be treated? How can you be more loving to yourself?

Self-love doesn’t just happen, it has to be cultivated over time. Self-love requires you to bring your awareness and attention to your own wellbeing and happiness. You have to actively choose to accept and love your FULL SELF, flaws and all. This can be difficult and emotionally heavy work, but peace lies on the other side.

This Valentine’s Day season, I want you to focus on yourself. Now, you can still celebrate your partner + family + friends — but I also want you to celebrate yourself. I always spoil myself and VDAY is no different. This year,  I want you to spoil yourself too! Below you’ll find a round up of some of my fav self-care brands with promo codes + savings so you can treat yo self in a fiscally responsible way.
