“To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.” — Oscar Wilde

The idea here is to start by going within, doing something consciously kind for yourself. For the purpose of this class, it’s important to be the first recipient of your acts of kindness. Please make sure this is something extra you do for yourself because of your participation in this class. Plan it in advance and carefully consider what it is you will do.

Some ideas: Take a nap or a hot bath. Recognize one of your positive personality traits. Go for a walk. Get a massage. Express genuine gratitude.

After having completed your act and if you so desire, summarize it for the rest of us in the comments section here, keeping your summary concise yet complete. If you’d like, tell us a little about yourself – your first name and where you live. The more interaction we can get here, the better it is for the class.
