Hi love,
 
Amelia, here. How's February treating you? Somehow this shortest month of the year always feels extra long to me. Likely because of the bitter cold and endless grey it brings to the Midwest.
 
I think that's why Valentine's Day has become such a bright spot for me over the past few years. I know it's a commercially-motivated, hokey holiday. But nowadays, I can get behind any reason to celebrate Love. Especially when we refuse to confine it to the romantically-charged, monogamy-required, marriage-or-bust box it's often put in.
 
In my pre-pandemic life, I hosted epic Galentine's brunches every year. I gathered with a dozen of my best babes. We feasted on brunch. And we wrote love notes to ourselves. 💌  That's my favorite way to spend Valentine's Day – in celebration of self-love and community-care, with my best friends and my lovers.

For this Lovers day in this Lovers year, I've made you an extra special Valentine's gift – a free email mini-course to cultivate a self-love practice through selfies!
 
If you're new to this list, you might not know that in 2020 and 2021, I led six Selfies for Self-Love Practice Groups. These were small groups of babes who I guided through selfie prompts, reflection questions, and gentle audio notes on topics ranging from gender to the male gaze to body liberation and beyond.
 
Now, I've transformed that group curriculum into a self-guided course that you can enjoy for free! This free mini-course is seven days of selfie prompts and reflection questions that help you explore your relationship with yourself by cultivating a selfie practice. 
 
It's gentle. It's feminist. And if you start today, you'll receive the final selfie prompt just in time for Valentine's Day. Sign up now. 💘
 
 
I hope this gift feels expansive and supportive as you navigate however February feels for you. ☁️  I promise that if you sign up, I'll treat your inbox with the sacred consent I always do. This isn't a sales funnel. It's an act of service from me to you, for Valentine's Day.
 
Next month I'll be back in your inbox sharing a new podcast about leaving social media. Then in April, I'm offering a free workshop through Holisticism that I can't wait to tell you about.
 
Have a beautiful Valentine's Day, babes. 💘
 
xoxo, Amelia
