- Affirmation ~ I love | I am loved

Today we open the Heart Chakra — the centre of love, compassion, and connection. This energy centre helps us give and receive love — not just to others, but also to ourselves. Anahata teaches us that softening is not weakness; it's strength with open arms. On this day, we explore self-love, especially for our bodies — honouring ourselves through movement, rest, and presence.
💫 Menopause Connection
Menopause can shift our body image, relationships, and capacity for self-nurture. Anahata invites us to love the evolving self and reframe ageing as wisdom-gathering. By staying connected to the heart, we anchor into emotional resilience and body acceptance.

💚 Journaling Prompts – Heart Chakra (Anahata)
Connection, compassion, and the courage to stay open.
- Who here made me feel seen or safe today?
- How can I open my heart even more gently?
- What does true connection feel like to me?
- In what ways do I nurture others? How am I being nurtured now?
- What am I learning about love — from myself, from others?
💚 The heart doesn't need to be fixed. It needs to be felt.
