Whether you’re celebrating galentines, taking a moment for self-care, a night with your sweetie, or raging because this holiday is made up and you’re over deciphering code to understand a text…I’ve got a little mix for your mood. February is a challenging month. Many of us are still knee-deep in snow and there’s no spring in sight but what’s actually kind of cool about Valentine’s Day is that you can twist it around to mean anything you want (plus, there’s so much good candy). Sure, it’s for lovebirds, but it can also be a wonderful time for a little acknowledgment of your own awesome. Maybe it’s a day to just love yourself for who you are, or a day to say, hey friend or family member – you’re the best and I appreciate you. It can even be a day to just snuggle with your pet a little more than usual and maybe give them a special treat just for bringing you so much joy in your life. No matter how you spend the day, I hope you give yourself a little hug and that these tunes give you a soundtrack to feel whatever you need.
