The most called-upon prerequisite of a friend is an accessible ear. - Maya Angelou
Phone a friend. One of the best ways to reconnect with the deeper, core self is to talk with a friend.
Besides the relief in resonating with a sympathetic, loving person, speaking your truth opens the throat chakra so that light can flow up from the heart and down from the crown of the head to infuse the energy system with inspiration and balance.
Friends and family are wonderful mirrors, and we see ourselves more clearly in them. Listening to other people's constructive ideas frees up our own.

| GREETINGS |
 During this month as we honor Love in our lives and within our hearts, may we practice the love of self as the basis of love of others. If we do not truly love and nurture ourselves, we are not able to offer our best to others. It is not selfish to nurture ourselves. In fact it is the greatest giving to others because we actually have something to give.
Every day this month may we discover and distill a sense of self-love in every aspect of our lives.
May we be mindful that Valentine's Day is not just for lovers, husbands and wives. It is for those who dearly touch our lives. This month especially, remember to take take the opportunity to tell all of those you hold dear how important they are in your life. In addition, as we honor the love within our hearts and within our lives, may we also be open enough to be able to love all that our life's journey brings us. May we honor and accept each circumstance as we are led along our life's path.

| DARE TO DREAM |
Marianne Williamson in A Return to Love says this: "You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just some of us; it's everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
Each of us has dreams, though sometimes we must dig very deep within ourselves to find them. We may have allowed our dreams to become buried as we tend to everyone else and deal with all our "responsibilities." This month as we focus on Love...beginning with love of self..., love yourself enough to honor and nurture your dreams.

| THE HEART OF A WOMAN |
Do you know that heart disease is the #1 killer of women? Do you also know that the symptoms of heart disease in women can be very different than the symptoms for men? In women, true pain may be absent and what may present is an overwhelming fatigue. Friday, February 6, 2009, is National Wear Red Day-a day when Americans nationwide will take women's health to heart by wearing red to show their support for women's heart disease awareness.
Join The Heart Truth on National Wear Red Day to help spread the critical message that "Heart Disease Doesn't Care What You Wear-It's the #1 Killer of Women." Everyone can participate in the national movement by wearing their favorite red dress, shirt, tie, or Red Dress Pin on Friday, February 6, 2009.
Women...do this for yourself, your friends, your sisters. Men...do this for all the women that are important to you. Do this for all women. Additionally, you may want to take a risk self-assessment offered by Clarian Health Partners. Click Here for this self-assessment.

| WHAT IS LOVE? |
 by Haley Cox
Ask people what love is and you will get a wide variety of answers. "I love you." These three words mean so much...some of the time. At other times, they can merely be hollow words with nothing evident in sight to back them up.
When we equate love with internal feelings of bliss, it becomes dependent on our "loved" ones pleasing us on a consistent basis and asking very little in return. It's easy to feel "love" when it does not make many demands on us or our time.
Too often, we work harder to please relative strangers than those we say we "love." When we feel secure in our relationships, we tend to take them for granted and forget the importance of demonstrating our love on a day-to-day basis.
Love, in the truest sense of the word, is an action verb. We can say "I love you" and truly feel like we mean it, but the proof of our love is in our actions.
To see how our love stacks up in terms of action, we can ask ourselves these questions:
1. How do I demonstrate my love through action?
2. How do my loved ones experience my love?
3. If I didn't say the words, could they tell by my actions that I love them?
4. Do I demonstrate my love even when I don't feel "loving?"
5. Do my loved ones have to please me to "feel" wrapped in my love?
6. What actions from others do I experience as "loving?"
7. Do I only show love when I am "feeling" loved?
8. Who in my life demonstrates their love for me through their actions?
9. Are there people in my life who say they love me without providing any evidence of this love other than mere words?
10.What can I do differently to demonstrate my love?
11.Do I show love for myself in my actions - even when I don't "feel" deserving of this love?
When we reflect on these questions, we can heighten our awareness of our own ability to put love into action- with others and with ourselves. We can CHOOSE to love when we see it as an active force rather than merely a feeling. True love exists when our actions match our words!
How have you Loved today?
