When you feel overwhelmed and tired, rest. Take a few moments to be still and quiet your mind. Don’t push yourself to the point of exhaustion. Breathe deeply, sit still for a few moments, do a gentle stretch, and give thanks. Give yourself a break occasionally. 
Quiet your thoughts. Do not let them run back to things in the past, or run ahead to things that might happen in the future. Simply stay in the moment, the now, of today. Remember to focus on each moment as one of healing for your heart and mind, and give thanks.
You are precious in the sight of God! He holds you in His hands and keeps you safe, even when you feel lonely and fearful, and are in pain. So today, on St. Valentine’s Day, give thanks that you are loved and cherished. Do something lovely for yourself!
Whatever is bothering you is not yours to keep. It is not here to stay. Therefore, do not say ‘my’ this or that, or refer to it in any way as having a connection to you. Yours is life and health and goodness. Claim that and speak of it always with thanksgiving to God.
What gifts can you give today? Even if you are in pain, no matter what you are going through today, there is something you can give to another. Give it in complete love, blessing the receiver as well as yourself. Enjoy the healing benefits of giving something in love, for no other reason.
You must remain in a place of peace in order to be healed. If there is someone or something bothering you, address it now. Immediately and completely forgive the person and yourself. Experience peace today as you practice the healing art of quick forgiveness.
Do not give anything that is causing discomfort any energy. Do not rage against it, do not talk about it, do not even think about it. Your mission today is simply to spend some time in silence, meditating upon the goodness of God and what it means to you to be completely well.
