Happy Valentines Day everyone! I wonder whether you have stopped to think about how to love yourself and not just your valentine or your family today this week?

That's exactly what we did in our .hie Journaling session this week. When you're looking after everyone else so much, it's easy to get lost in amoungst it all.

Here's what the group gathered as their "Top Tips" for Self-Love:

* Try to practice living in the moment for a few minutes a day and still your mind.
* Carve out 10-15 minutes a day for you, spend it however you wish, non-negotiable.
* Read my affirmations everyday even if you don't always believe them, yet!
* Speak to yourself as you would to your best friend, rather than your worst enemy!
* Say no if you need to!
* Try and move every day, a walk outside or dance to your favourite music in the kitchen.
* Go outside and breathe, listen to sounds outside, touch the soil.
* Listen to podcasts or audiobooks on your journeys in the car. You might not get much time to yourself, but this gives you something for you.
* Breathe.
* Just breathe.

What would your top tip for self-love be?
