February - A month for your heart...

When you think of February, are you a fan of Heart Month??

A lot of people are torn whether or not they want to acknowledge or celebrate Valentine's Day. Some think it is too commercial. Some think it is a difficult reminder of their marital status - whether single, separated, divorced or widowed - it can be a lot of advertising for people who are not you. 

The thing about Valentines to me is it should be an opportunity to celebrate the loving relationships you have in your life - not just a sweetheart, but your mom, your family - even yourself.

When was the last time you took the time to acknowledge your own need for a bit of pampering?

When you talk about natural health and wellness, mental and emotional health and wellness has to come into the conversation. I think we should consider using February as a friendly reminder to treat ourselves with a bit of consideration and kindness. 

Don't worry - I'm not saying you can't do all the fun romance stuff if that is your thing. I just want you to consider when you are thinking of everybody else in your life on Valentine's Day - stop for a moment or two to celebrate your own good heart.
