Put on your rose-colored glasses and embrace your inner romantic with our 28 Days of Love calendar! Each day you’ll find an activity like a special girls night out or an indulgent night in for a warm, Lavender-scented bath. This February, bring love into your life and grow closer to the people around you (including yourself!) as you complete the calendar.
How do you do the love challenge?
It’s simple: Do one task for each day of the month. It’s okay if you don’t begin on the first day; just begin with the task that correlates with the day you are on or start from the beginning and go through each day until you complete the list!
How can love improve your life?
When we think of love, oftentimes we picture romantic relationships or the love that we have for our families and friends. It is easy to forget how important it is to love yourself as well. Increasing self-love can help you to gain confidence and will allow you to have the capacity to give more of your love to others.
As you serve those around you, change your inner voice to be more positive, and work on building loving relationships, you will begin to increase in happiness and life satisfaction.

February 5: Write down 10 things you love about yourself. It’s okay if this takes a little bit of time. Allow yourself to truly ponder on this list. If you are struggling with coming up with 10 things, do a compliment exchange with a friend or loved one to get ideas.
