Finding Inner Love and Peace Through Flowers (Floristry Art of Living founder Emily’s thoughts)

by Emily, Founder of Floristry Art of Living
Valentine's Day is not just about expressing love for others; it's also an opportunity to connect with yourself and find inner love and peace. Flowers have a unique way of elevating our spirits and helping us discover a deeper sense of love and tranquility within ourselves. Here's how you can use flowers to cultivate inner love and peace this Valentine's Day.

Choose Meaningful Flowers

Select flowers that resonate with you on a personal level. Whether it's the vibrant energy of roses, the calming presence of lavender, or the resilience of sunflowers, each flower carries its own symbolism and energy. Take the time to understand the meanings behind different flowers and choose the ones that speak to your heart.

Create a Meditation Space

Set up a serene space in your home where you can immerse yourself in the beauty of flowers. Arrange them in vases or bowls, and surround yourself with their natural essence. This can be your dedicated meditation corner or simply a peaceful area where you can reflect and find stillness.

Engage in Floral Meditation

Sit in the presence of your chosen flowers and focus on their beauty. Close your eyes and take deep breaths, allowing their fragrance to fill your senses. Visualize yourself surrounded by the love and positive energy that these flowers represent. Let their essence embrace your soul and bring forth feelings of love and peace from within.

Practice Gratitude and Self-Love

As you bask in the aura of flowers, take a moment to reflect on everything you are grateful for, including the love you have for yourself. Embrace self-love and acknowledge your own worth. Let the flowers serve as a reminder that just as they bloom and flourish, so can your inner love and peace.

Spread Love to Others

Once you've nurtured your inner love and peace, extend this positive energy to others. Share flowers with loved ones, friends, or even strangers. Spread kindness and joy through the gift of flowers, knowing that the love and peace you've cultivated within can inspire and uplift those around you.

Remember, Valentine's Day is not just about external expressions of love, but also about nurturing the love and peace within ourselves. Let flowers be your allies in this journey of self-discovery and inner harmony. Embrace their beauty, embody their resilience, and allow them to guide you towards a deeper connection with your own heart.
