Summer of Self Love is a 13-week journey of mindful self-care, inspired by the heart of the 1960s Summer of Love. Each week offers a new theme to support your nervous system and nourish your spirit through daily practices, guided meditations, journal prompts, poetry, and more. Reconnect with yourself, one breath and one act of love at a time.
Come back to the texture,
to the warm cup in your hand,
to the song humming just beneath your ribs.
Let lavender speak,
let sunlight touch your cheek like a friend.
Your senses are not distractions—
they are directions.
They are doorways to presence,
to pleasure, to peace.
Feel the world gently.
Let it love you back.
What senses do I tend to neglect—and which ones bring me the most joy or comfort?
How does my body feel when I slow down and truly pay attention to sensory experience?
What small sensory ritual can I offer myself each day to feel more grounded and alive?
