I am writing this as we are home a few extra days due to the lovely snow we are getting. The extra time gave me the opportunity to do a bit more caretaking of the home and family, but also a little extra time for me, too! When we think of February, we think Valentine’s Day and showing those we love how much we care. It is probably good to also remember we can’t pour from an empty cup.
We need to leave room in our day/week/year for the things that keep us going! I know for me my morning runs and yoga classes are essential. Less than 4 of those a week and I am getting cranky. I also need my morning prayer and journal time, thus my early pre-dawn wakeup habit. One or two vacation trips a year are also key to my sanity.
What is it that you need? Are you giving yourself permission to take that time? Maybe as you are thinking about Valentine’s plans for others, put in a few self-love plans for yourself. You’re worth it!
At Genesis we also offer a few ways you can show yourself some love, too. Be sure to check out our February promotions and blog posts, including:

I hope you and yours stay warm and enjoy this loving season! Happy Valentine’s Day!
