Journal prompts for self-love

Pause, ponder, and pour some much-needed love into yourself

Hello my darling friends!

It’s Mother’s Day and to all the moms I wish you a very lovely Mother’s Day. I hope you are basking in some much deserved rest. To all of those who have difficult relationships with your moms or becoming a mom or the endless permutations of complications - I’m one of you and I love you and I see you.

If today is all about loving the maternal, I wanted to give you prompts that anyone can use to love and nurture themselves a little more. Here’s why: in the hustle of our daily routines, amid the pressures and the endless to-dos, it’s dangerously easy to forget the one person who needs your attention the most—you. I invite you to pause, ponder, and pour some much-needed love into yourself.

So, grab your favorite pen (you know, that one that glides across the page just so), find a cozy corner, and let’s dive into a week of gentle introspection.

You really, really are.
