10 Top Tips for Global Love Day!
1. Make an intention to ‘Be the Love’ – to commit to love in thought, word or deed, to be more mindful about if you are in your heart and coming from a place of love, and how you may return to that by focusing on loving thoughts and compassionate perspectives.
2. Get together with friends, family or work colleagues for a ‘Love-In’ celebration. Connect, love, laugh, share and enjoy. A range of ideas on what to do at a Love-In (a gathering in the name of love) are shared in the free “Love-In Guide”
3. Share a gift of love with someone. It is not the nature of the gift or form the giving takes that matters as much as the love behind it. Your gift of love may be a card, an item, a donation to charity, flowers, a pay-it-forward gift, helping someone with your time, a poem, a dinner, etc.
4. Partake in random acts of kindness. Here are some examples:
Buy a lottery ticket for a stranger, put some coins in someone else’s parking meter, walk your friend’s dog, compliment a stranger (sincerely), send someone a small gift anonymously, pay for the drinks on the next table at a café (think of any others?).
5. Do a meditation dedicated to love. You may want to light a candle to set the intention and work in whatever way feels right to you. Get in touch with the love in your heart for yourself, others and the world. You may want to begin with feeling gratitude and appreciation to yourself and those you love to open your heart to more love. Expand that love out and send it to those less close, associates, strangers, and the world at large.
6. Write an anonymous love letter or note for a stranger to find addressed “To you, From Love” sharing words of unconditional love, as if writing it to yourself or someone you care about. Leave it on someone’s car windscreen, in a letter box, a tree or bush, amongst groceries in a store, etc. Visit www.globalloveletters.com for more details.
7. What can you let go of that blocks love in your life? Who can you forgive? What grievance can you drop, fear relinquish, story drop? Consciously let go of that which doesn’t serve you and stands in the way of you being more of the love that you are and receiving the love that is there for you.
8. Send love into the world. You may want to donate to a charity, see what cause you can support and how, or ponder on how you can personally be of help. You may want to do a meditation for world peace as another example. (A free streaming of the World Healing Meditation is available at www.worldhealingmeditation.com)
9. Witness the love in each person you meet and bring love and kindness to each encounter.
10. Be generous with sincere expressions of love, including hugs and smiles and wish people Happy Global Love Day!
