As Valentine’s Day rolls around, love is in the air. But we usually relate the day to romance—crushes, significant others, and the relationships we build. What we might forget is that this celebration of love doesn’t have to be limited to romantic relationships—it can include platonic relationships and our relationship with ourselves!
Self-love and self-care have a wide range of benefits and are essential to building strong relationships, healing, and mindfulness. This episode focuses on physical or emotional practices to guide us on the road of self-love to the journey of self-preservation.
Join this podcast with licensed therapist Vanessa De Jesus Guzman for this real-talk conversation on self-care, gratitude, and open communication, followed by a short meditation at the end.
