Self Love is the theme of this post!
It’s the week before Valentine’s Day. You can’t help but notice the store isles filled with heart-shaped candy boxes and flower advertisements galore. Even coffee giant, Starbucks has jumped on the cash band wagon offering specialty cups and mugs in honor of V-Day.
All this hoopla started me to think about ‘love” and all the different kinds of love that exist… there’s motherly love, love at first sight, true love, unconditional love… and the list goes on and on but what about the most important love there is?
Self love…
Women have been culturally taught to chase a Disney fairytale. You know, the one where Prince Charming comes riding up on his big, white steed and sweeps the fair maiden off her feet. I know the scenario far too well, because I chased that fairytale for most of my life. Until I woke up and developed a Goddess Mindset that is.
The reality is that happily ever afters aren’t usually that easy and Prince Charming’s rarely exist outside of the movies.
Too many women get caught up in the fantasy and waste a lot of their precious time tolerating sub par treatment and kissing their man’s ass off. They think that the better they treat their man, the more he will appreciate her back.
Sounds logical right? But it’s actually completely ass backwards!
Self love…
In order to be deeply loved by another you must love yourself first. The most important relationship you have is the one you have with yourself. It may sound cliche, but it’s true.
Let me ask you, do you notice and appreciate your strengths and your beauty? Or do you tend to beat yourself up over your perceived flaws and imperfection?
Love is a powerful emotion and when you authentically feel love for yourself, it shows on the outside, emanating through your pores. Your love and light shines brightly out of you and onto others and by golly, it’s contagious!
Let’s make this Valentine’s Day all about YOU and SELF LOVE!
I teach women to connect with their Inner Goddess to create what I like to call a “Goddess Mindset”. A Goddess Mindset is attained by up-leveling your sense of deserving.
- I deserve to be happy and healthy.
- I deserve to be loved and valued.
- I deserve to be respected and validated.
Goddesses LOVE to indulge and say “YES” to their deepest desires. Let’s explore a couple of ways you can say YES to yours this Valentine’s Day…
There is no bigger indulgence for most woman than a scrumptious piece of chocolate! Forget the generic prepackaged box of chocolates full of sugar, additives, food coloring, high fructose corn syrup and Goddess knows what else.
Here are a couple of ideas that will make your Valentine’s Day health-ified & sexi-fied!
Think… candle light, a glass of your favorite wine, soft, sexy music and some chocolate dipped strawberries! Be sure to ask your family for some private, uninterrupted time. I’ve been known to lock my bedroom door!
Ooooh I can hardly wait how about you?
Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries Recipe
Chocolate-dipped strawberries make an elegant dessert that won’t pack on the pounds. Begin by melting your favorite dark chocolate that has over 70 percent cocoa (it’s important, it contains less sugar), and mix it with a bit of heavy cream. Dip each strawberry in the chocolate and place on parchment paper until the chocolate sets.
