February Newsletter 2026

Happy February. A new month has come into play and there is so much to look forward to. With everyone focused on holidays like Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras I want to focus on self love.

Self love is important. It’s the basis of how you interact with others. Also this is a great time for me to remind you that is also okay to do the work with the help of others for any and all internal struggles you may be facing.

What is showing yourself love?

Showing yourself love is really about choosing to treat your own heart with the same tenderness, patience, and generosity you offer everyone else. It can look like slowing down long enough to hear what your body and spirit are asking for, honoring your boundaries without guilt, and celebrating your small wins instead of rushing past them.

It’s giving yourself permission to rest, to play, to dream, and to take up space without apology. It’s speaking to yourself with softness, feeding your joy on purpose, and creating rituals—big or small—that remind you that you matter every single day.

How important is self love?!

Self‑love is essential because it becomes the foundation for everything else you build—your boundaries, your relationships, your confidence, and even your capacity to rest. When you value yourself, you stop settling for what drains you and start choosing what nourishes you.

It helps you move through the world with clarity instead of comparison, intention instead of survival mode. Self‑love strengthens your resilience, softens your inner dialogue, and reminds you that you are worthy of care even when you’re growing, healing, or figuring things out. It’s not indulgence; it’s maintenance for your mind, body, and spirit.

Practical Ways to Show Yourself Love 💗

• Give yourself permission to rest without earning it or explaining it. Rest is not a reward; it’s maintenance.
• Speak to yourself with the same tone you use for someone you adore. Swap “I should’ve known better” for “I’m learning, and that’s okay.”
• Create small rituals that make you feel held—a morning stretch, a favorite mug, a playlist that resets your mood.
• Honor your boundaries by saying no when something drains you and yes when something nourishes you.
• Celebrate your small wins instead of brushing past them. You’re allowed to be proud of yourself for things others might overlook.
• Feed your joy on purpose—read something you love, take yourself out, revisit a hobby, or try something playful just because.
• Check in with your body throughout the day: Do I need water, food, movement, or stillness.
• Let yourself feel your feelings without rushing to fix them. Validation is a form of love.
• Do one thing each day that makes your future self exhale—tidy a corner, prep something, send the email, or set up tomorrow’s clothes.
• Surround yourself with softness—people, environments, routines, and words that make you feel safe and seen.

Self love is important and I hope you are filling the cup you pour from. You are worthy of joy, peace, love, and more. Here’s to more self love.

February things I’m into this month so far:

I’ve been in love with my Hatch. If you want to check it out watch it on my YouTube. In addition I’ve been reading Baldwin: A Love Story. I finally feel like I’m more myself. It’s allowing me to tap into the activities that I love. Looking for gifts and finds for Valentine’s Day? Check out my Amazon store.

Bed rotting has been my new thing. I thought it was a joke before when I saw the term online but in whole the concept of laying around and not getting up initially. It’s laying around getting rest and mindless scrolling. I’m here for it every now and again.
