The Velocity of Love

This February, join me for a different kind of love story. Seven days exploring how loving yourself first isn’t selfish—it’s how you become capable of the kind of love that changes everything. Because hope begins when you fill your own well.

Love is a force in motion. It builds when it’s shared and transforms everything it touches. But here’s the truth most of us learn too late: love doesn’t arrive from somewhere else. It flows from within.

The velocity of love—how freely we let it move through our lives—determines not just our relationships, but our entire life’s trajectory.

These emotions aren’t random or unimportant reactions. They’re the wisdom of our experiences talking to us and often protecting us from repeating mistakes. They deserve to be heard and respected with compassion. In fact, we ignore them at our peril.

beauty of gratitude from my next book,

The Beautiful Road! 

 

Sara Ban Breathnach’s 1995 book, Simple Abundance: A Daybook of Comfort and Joy was more than a bestselling book—it was, and is, a revolutionary way of living. It offers a year-long journey through daily meditations meant to help us rediscover the sacredness of the ordinary. Breathnach calls it “an exciting adventure together,” and it really is: a conscious daily return to grace and gratitude.

We’ve all heard it before — “Be in the moment.” It’s screened onto coffee mugs, whispered in yoga studios, printed on posters everywhere. And if you’re anything like me, maybe it used to drive you a little nuts. What other moment could I possibly be in?
