As an emotion, Love is undoubtedly worthy of its own month and with Valentine's Day approaching it is a time to celebrate love and affection. Whether you're spending it with a partner, friends, or enjoying some self-care time you can make it special in a way that feels meaningful to you. February, is promoted as the month of Love, this doesn’t just have to mean romantic love, this February why not give some thought to how you can act in a way to nurture your self-love. Self-love is an awareness and appreciation of yourself, it is dynamic and, ideally, always increasing. It blooms as you consistently make choices that allow the nurturing of your physical, psychological and spiritual growth. It cannot be bought, and it cannot be hastily achieved, it takes time and commitment, the better care you take of yourself, the more likely you will increase your self-love.

February is seasonally still rooted in Winter with a hope of Spring, it is a time for reflection and to get emotionally and physically ready to embark upon a fresh new season. February is an ideal time of year to indulge in self care and well being rituals. The season is slowly aiming towards the Spring yet it is still a cold, dark month which requires some resilience and care taking. It is the time, to prioritise self-care by staying warm, getting enough sunlight, and maintaining a comforting routine. Nourish yourself with cosy activities like reading by candlelight, taking aromatic warm baths, and enjoying your favourite foods.

Taking time for yourself, to do something that makes you feel good in your body and your mind, is never a waste of time, it is never selfish nor is it counter-productive. Planning out the ability to make time for yourself to get to an exercise or evening class, or take a walk, or meet a friend for coffee, is absolutely essential to your well-being and it will increase your self-love. You should be a priority, you are worthy of feeling content and being happy. When you feel good about yourself, you will give back to your friends, spouse and your family way in a more meaningful way than the version of you that constantly runs on empty, feeling overwhelmed and irritable. Overall well being and self-love develops when you consistently practice self-care, gratitude, self-forgiveness, and the ability to prioritise your own needs.

Practicing gratitude is also a powerful element of self-care, take moments each day to reflect on what you're thankful for, it can enhance your overall well-being and mindset. It is the best way to quiet an over active mind and invite mental clarity and peace. This practice will expand your ability to feel self-love and encourage you to take good care of yourself and allow you to nurture those around you. This February, the month of Love, give some thought to how you can act in a way to nurture your self-love. Below are some product ideas to enhance this, they also make great gift ideas for friends and loved ones. This February we are delighted to offer a generous 20% OFF Aroma Diffusers.
