More Self Love – Valentine 💜

By Dan Tanner  |   in art journal  | Tags: art musings , art journal , tamara laporte , Willowing Arts  

Happy Self Love Valentine ♥️

Most of us are kind, caring and loving to others, but few of us grant ourselves the same care, love and kindness that we give to those we love.

So on Valentine’s Day each year I like to invite my wonderful creative friends, to deepen their relationship with themselves and remind you to make time for self-care, self love and self-appreciation.

Treating yourself with anything less than gentle kindness, compassion, empathy and understanding can have all sorts of negative impacts on your mental health, self esteem and general wellbeing. Self love and self care might seem frivolous or unnecessary, but these practices can have a profound impact on your mental health and general wellbeing.

So what does “self love” look like you may wonder?

Well, this area is vast of course and depending on what you’ve experienced in life, self love can look like all sorts of things; from doing deep trauma work with a therapist & to setting strong boundaries to making time for yourself to do fun things, making self gratitude lists and having a nice bath once in a while amongst other things.

The key is to treat yourself like
you treat someone else you love deeply. 

♥️ 
Gifts!
On this day I’m making 3 Self Love Posters Available as a
Bundled Download FOR FREE! YAY! ♥️♥️♥️ 

.

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 💕PS. If you want to work more on accepting and loving yourself, we have just started Life Book 2023 on which we do all sorts of exercises both creative and personal to help you become kinder to yourself.

Looking at more old journal pages! These are from around 2016/17 I think! 😊 The ‘one word’ thing has always been there for me. What I do when journalling; I draw/ paint/ scribble and then usually there is some kind of overwhelming emotional state that can be summarised or reflected in one word, so you often see words like: ‘open’, ‘stay’, ‘compassion’, ‘surrender’ on my journal pages. Like messages/ reflections from ‘my higher’ self. 😊
