Creative self-care: February OLW

I think I’m doing rather well with “cherish” so far.  I’ve been reading The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have each evening and then writing down 5 things I’m grateful for in a journal.  I’ve even had a few days when I tossed my to-do list and just read a book and took a nap.  (This is so uncharacteristic of me that I suspect that either 1) it has something to do with Mercury being in retrograde, which I know nothing about, or 2) this “cherish” thing is working!

I had Rachelle Mee-Chapman (aka Magpie Girl) write a customized blessing for my word.  She said she capitalized Memory, Worth, and Care because she saw them as personifications –  kind figures waiting to walk with me – so they deserve a first name.  I love that! Her words resonate so fully for me.

Beautiful, right? Sigh. So worth it.

I’m coming up with a list of some creative self-care ideas.  If you have any suggestions, I’m open!

If you’re interested, you can read previous One Little Word posts here.  On Monday, we’ll be joining in another Photo-Heart Connection and on Wednesday, we’ll be talking about our next Soulful Home prompt – favorite things! Have a wonderful weekend, friends! Thanks, as always, for being here.
