Happy Self Love Valentine ♥️

Happy Self Love Valentine ♥️

Dear Creative Friend,

Many of us extend kindness, care, and love to those around us, yet often we fail to offer ourselves the same level of love & compassion. This Valentine’s Day, I’m reaching out to my incredible creative circle—including you, and yes, YOU! 😊 —to encourage a deeper connection with yourself. It’s a gentle reminder to prioritise self-care, self-love, and self-appreciation. You are worth it you know? All that love you give to others! ♥️♥️♥️

Neglecting to treat ourselves with gentle kindness, compassion, empathy, and understanding can detrimentally affect our mental health, self-esteem, and overall wellbeing. While self-love and self-care might seem superfluous at times, they are essential practices that significantly benefit our mental and general health.

You might be wondering, “What does self-love entail?”
The concept is broad and highly personal. Depending on your life experiences, self-love can manifest in various forms—be it engaging in deep trauma work with a therapist, establishing firm boundaries, carving out time for enjoyable activities, creating self-gratitude lists, enjoying a relaxing bath or simply buying yourself the flowers, chocolate and cake! 💖 💐🍫
The key is to treat yourself like
you treat someone else you love deeply. 
♥️ 

A Gift from me to YOU! 

I’ve prepared another fun poster, this time it’s one with Self Love Affirmations. You can print it out and hang it around your house or studio and recite the affirmations daily! 😊 Oh! And it’s free! Hope you love it!

Download the high resolution versions of the posters in this bundle here. You can print these out for personal use. Feel free to forward to friends. ♥️♥️♥️
If no one told you yet today; you are loved! ❤️

Have a wonderful V-day everyone, may it inspire you to more self-love, less self-blame and an awe and complete acceptance of your unique amazing SELF!

Much love,
Tam 💕

Spent time painting this very sweet and soothing barn owl this evening. Even though I`ve been making art for years and know the calming effect creating art has on my nervous system; I continue to be amazed by how stress relieving it can be to just sit with paints and let the feelings flow. 😍
