It is my mission to turn the high beam of sweet love your way. No matter where you are, in or out of relationship, the weekend demands bodacious and thrilling Love Day treats, take-aways, and super Self-Lovedom. It might even require a tantrum...a magic love-releasing of sorts. Whatever you need, this is your chance to give it to yourself like it should be given.
The Do's
#1 Make a date for the weekend
This year Sunday is Love Day. Reserve the whole weekend if you can. Go out with the girls or the guys. Get out. Go dancing and live it up. Set the intention to have the best time ever and you will.
Execute "Operation Loveness". A home-sweet-home date might just be the best, and exactly what you need right now. Invite a friend or two of your special besties and slumber party it. If you like to slumber long and alone in your bed, invite them for a cozy dinner, drinks and a movie. Give them a coffee and send them home warmly into the night.
A few perfect "Love Day" films.
-Wild
-Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
-Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
-Fried Green Tomatoes
-Thelma & Louise
Spending the night alone could be your definition of blissed out. Go all-out for you. Order out and have it delivered. Spread furry blankets and (safely) light candles. Have a pitcher of water, wine or margaritas etc. at arms reach but do not drive. Get really good chocolate, or have a cake made for you with exactly what you want it to say on top. Watch a good girl movie or a season of your favorite show.
Have a long conversation with a friend over skype and share a cocktail, coffee or glass of wine together. Reminisce about all the great times you have had together. Express the deep love you will always have for your dearest friends, no matter what is going on in life. They are definitely lifetime gems to be grateful for. Your besties are forever.
#2 Adorn Yourself
Going out for the night? Dress up! Dress hot! Do your make-up and wear those special shoes. Look in the mirror before you go and tell yourself you are fabulous, because you are. Wear your favorite crystals, jewelry and live it up. Consider calling a cab, limo or having a designated driver for the night.
If you decide to be the goddess-queen of your lair, wear some sensual, beautiful clothing that sings sexy-lounging. Do not throw on your usual sack-out sweats. Pick something beautiful that feels good against your skin, and makes you feel beautiful inside and out. Wear lipstick, some brand new silky soft pants or a pretty comfortable loose sweater. Which brings me too...Gifts.
#3 Give Yourself Gifts
This is the weekend to:
-Get your nails done alone or with friends
-Book a spa day alone or with your Besties
-Take a trip to visit a friend
-Buy yourself an "extravagant" gift
-Of course have flowers delivered to Ms. Loveness
-Buy a new outfit to wear for going out and dancing
-Buy a new robe or lounge wear that screams how deserving you are of this queenly treatment
-Wear lipstick
The Don'ts
#1 Do not go out to a couples kind of restaurant by yourself, and look at couples who seem to be having the best time together. Perhaps if you could really see the truth of the relationship, their issues and all the fights they've been in, you would choose to be single.
#2 Do not meet your friends and have too many drinks, drive home and/or make yourself sick. This is your time to rule, not hurl.
#3 Do not look at pictures of your ex, the two of you together, or look them up on Facebook. In fact seriously consider burning most of those old photos if not all of them. Have a Love-Burning (safely please) in honor of your new Ms. Loveness status.
#4 Do not time travel to the dimension of the past or allow yourself to ache over what most likely was not the relationship you were supposed to be in.
I have a feeling sister, that this just might be one of the very best Valentine's celebrations you have ever had. Being good to yourself, visiting and cherishing friends and special people in your life that you do love, adds more power to your love beam, making you super-irresistible. Partners that let you down and just didn't work because they couldn't commit (wouldn't commit) or put their work first, or expected you to be superwoman so they could keep playing outside, or the ones that betrayed you simply cannot exist in this kind of love realm. If you keep treating yourself like this, you will be able to spot them from a mile away. Loving yourself first changes everything.
I have a special gift for you my dear. Head on over here to get my Lakshmi Bountiful Blessings CD. You will feel amazing after you listen to it!
Have the best Love Day ever! Let me know how it goes.
