Valentines Self Care Day

Posted bylivingmybestlifebymaryPosted inBlog PostTags:,

With Valentine’s day less than a month away i think it’s the perfect time to nurturing yourself, loving yourself and and celebrate the most beautiful love in your life… yourself my dear.

I know every TV commercial and store are trying to sell you than this holiday is all about couple love and show your significant other how much you care about him or her.

But let me tell you, if you are in a season where you don’t have a couple or you are just single by choice you shouldn’t feel like this holiday is not yours to celebrate. I want you to love yourself and show yourself how important is your relationship this Valentine’s day.

So with that in mind I came up with these self care tips to enjoy your V-day either you decide to be alone or have your girlfriends over for a Galentine’s day, or if you just want to take a “me” time right before your date.

*Buy yourself some flowers

*Journal everything you are thinking or feeling

Practice mindfulness. Meditate. Go into the wilderness and find your inner peace.

Take a social media break… its ok to unplug for a while so you can enjoy yourself without checking what everybody else is up to. Read a book, burn a candle, go out with your gals or have a glass of your favorite wine.

Remember that February 14 is a date to celebrate love whatever that looks to you.

You don’t need to fit in the box society is trying to put you in. You are lovable and worthy whatever you are single, in a relationship or going through a break up.

Happy Valentine’s Day y’all!

Love, Mary

  1. Awe! I cannot agree more with you on loving yourself. I think we sometimes are too consumed with pleasing and loving everyone else that we sometimes forget about ourselves. This was a lovely reminder. Thank you for sharing 🙂

  2. I’ve been single pretty much every Valentine’s Day, except for the last few years. I wish I would’ve thought to do some of these things instead of pretending the holiday didn’t exist. Such great ideas!

  10. Valentines day while important to show the ones you love attention, it is just as important if not the MOST important to show yourself some love and compassion too!! I agree that we do not need to fix ourselves to fit into the box society creates. I think that Valentines day is a good reminder day to reflect on all our amazing talents, & gifts and to take care of ourselves just as much as we take time to care for others!! 🙂

  14. What a wonderful post and message! Valentine’s Day isn’t about relationships, it’s about LOVE! And that comes in many forms, including one of the most important, self-love. Thank you for this reminder.

  20. I was literally thinking this!! I am single & enjoying my time to myself to heal. I practice affirmations on focus on the relationships that matter right now besides a romantic one. Thank you for this ❤
