<p>Today's FUN way of infusing self-love into our daily lives is through what we choose to read. Reading for self-love can be either: Reading something you love to read (notice + name it as part of your self-love practice) or reading something you consider to be about self-love. In this episode, Lee Lee shares 3 of her favorite self-love books, Out of Love: Finding Your Way Back to Self-Compassion by Marianne Ingheim; Hunger by Roxanne Gay; and House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros. If you're looking for new books about self-love, look them u!p And make a plan to read them, either by ordering them from a bookstore (buy black-owned!!) or from the library, and/or by adding to your nightstand shelf.</p>

<p>Every now and then, life gets hectic and we plan a vacation. Or maybe we plan one in advance because we know life's going to be hectic for a while and we'll need a break afterward. A vacation acts as a regeneration of the relationship with whatever it is we're focusing on for that time period, whether family, our spirit of adventure, or our need for downtime. Good news: we can follow the same process when we need to reconnect with ourselves. We can research, plan, and anticipate a Self-Love vacation (or staycation) anytime we want, provided it fits into our budget and lifestyle. Take a moment today to dream about what this would look like and how great it would feel--to spend time just connecting with yourself. It can be a day, an hour, an afternoon, a weekend, or a whole week. The scope & specifics is up to you! Dream about but don't stop there: go ahead and schedule something in so that you can look forward to it the same way you do a "regular" vacation.</p>

<p>There's nothing more important in a healthy self-love practice than regular intimacy with ourselves. Just as you would establish and foster a time & place for intimacy in a loving relationship with another person, you can also foster intimacy with yourself. This is both a physical act (acquiring tools and storing them lovingly) and a mindset shift; namely, replacing shame & secrecy around self-touch with specialness, joy, and curiosity. Do a bedside table (or drawer/shelf) makeover... What does your bedside table say about your desire for intimacy? Is it full of dirty tissues & old chapsticks you no longer use...? Or is it clean, neat, organized, attractive, and filled with the things that foster rest & pleasure? If not the latter, ask yourself why that is the case. Do the mental work first, and then setting up the physical space will become more ease-full. Alternatively, go ahead and set up your physical space to support self-intimacy and then, in the appreciation and, frankly, in the convenience, your mindset will shift over time. The secret is out: most adults pleasure themselves on a regular basis. Let's stop hiding it, and showcase our toolkit--or, at the very least--honor it and place it appropriately & lovingly nearby the place where this intimacy happens.</p>
