Be the love

Happy Valentine’s Day – to all the love birds and all the singletons too! Love isn’t something we find or have or do – it’s something we are – expressed through our thoughts, our words and our actions. It’s great to share that part of ourselves with others, whether they be partners, family, friends or even complete strangers, but don’t forget to be the love for yourself first. And yes, of course we should express this love every single day, in as many ways as we can – but let’s also embrace the opportunity to celebrate it today, trying to ignore the awful commercialism that has built up around it. No need to buy any flowers or chocolates (or make a heart shape out of two trikonasanas) just give someone you love a hug – and give yourself one too!
