[View this email in your browser]( 7 Days of Self-Love Affirmations and Meditations to Try This Week [Love Notes to My Self book on table with flowers]( I’m a wellness editor, so having an extensive self-care routine is basically in the job description. And yes, I meditate, work out, and cook plant-based meals every day. But it wasn’t until our [February Self-Love Challenge]( that I realized how much time and energy I was spending on self-care, and how little time I was spending on actually loving myself. The challenges like buying flowers for myself felt revolutionary and journaling about my accomplishments felt foreign. Wellness routines are crucial for us to feel our best, but we often forget to make time for fostering the relationship we have with ourselves. So after realizing that I could (nay, should!) spend a lot more time, energy, and intention on self-love, I challenged myself to pick up daily meditations and affirmations from [Love Notes to My Self](. [use code LOVENOTES15 to save 15%]( [Love Notes to My Self]( serves as the daily empowering reminder I needed to care for myself and feel inspired to tap into my truest self. With over 200 pages filled with affirmations and reflections intended for the reader to cultivate the most important relationship in their lives (AKA the one we have with ourselves), Love Notes to My Self is the mindset must-have you didn’t know you needed. For about a month now, I’ve started my day reading and meditating on the next page in the book. If I have time, I’ll do some journaling or a seated meditation about what came to mind after reflecting on the prompt, but when I only have a minute before diving into my to-do list, reading the page sets a powerful intention throughout the day. After weeks of this practice, I am so much more compassionate toward myself, confident in who I am, and have gained clarity in what I want.
