It’s Simple. It’s Deep.
And it’s completely Free…
just like LOVE itself.
There are 4 Easy Steps:
1) Pick one person to focus on during the month of June. Just one. It could be your partner, parent, child, sibling, best friend, or even someone you’re struggling with.
2) Beginning JUNE 1st you’re going to tell that person one reason you love them*. You’re going to be specific. Then every day for 30 days you’ll give a unique reason you love them. No repeats. I call these Love Bombs.
3) This means you’re going to have to pay attention to them, and your feelings. You’ll probably start with the obvious and then notice things you’ve been taking for granted. You may have to draw on memories to rekindle something that’s been lost.
4) Express it any way you want. Say it, text it, leave love notes, get it tattooed on your body, use sign language, spell it in sprinkles on a cake…. get creative. Or keep it simple. Doing it daily is all that matters.
*If you choose a co-worker or your bus driver or the guy who walks your pet lizard it may be totally weird to say “love”. No problem. Say “appreciate, admire, respect, enjoy, am in awe of…” There are so many to express love.
Here’s the best part. The more you give love the more you get. Just by feeling and expressing the love you have for someone, you reap the benefits. It will increase your dopamine and oxytocin, and decrease your stress hormones. It can lower your blood pressure, help you sleep better, reduce your cravings for sugar, enhance your creativity, and even help you lose weight. And it can make you feel more generous and grateful.

i love you deb! but i’m not picking you for june ok? 🙂
Nancy I’m heart broken!
Love this idea Deb. I was going to pick my dog but worry he would eat my love notes and get sick so I’ll have to go with somebody else, maybe even me, lol! I’m going to be a “love ninja” for the month of June!
Love Ninja will be your new name. I may never call you Linda again.
Love you so much Deb!
Doing this is only one reason I Love you, Debra Joy!!
You are an amazing woman Debra.
Thanks for stepping up to help spread more love on the planet.
Reaching out to give you a big hug!
Much love!
Patt
ANY excuse to LOVE MORE is a GREAT EXCUSE for me!! It’s a wise, profound and clever idea and I am UP for it! Thanks! And yes… sending love your way as well, Debra…
Lovin’ the love-fest! Can we start early? 🙂
I love all the comments and the enthusiasm for this idea.
Michele – you can definitely start early, and you can do it past June 30th too.
I love you, Deb! You are a blessing to this planet and I’m so happy we’re friends!
Thanks so much!
What a great initiative! Thank you for sharing this! I would like you to know that your love seeds are getting to Brazil too! Many blessings
Jessica I am thrilled you’ll be dropping LOVE BOMBS in Brazil. Obrigado do meu coração
Hey Deb, tried to sign up but cannot get passed the sign up button for some reason…have refreshed etc…..
Love Margot H.
Hey Margot,
I think it’s because you’re in from registering before.
You are in!
(Wish it was a smoother way of letting you know. Technology baffles me. )
So glad you’re up for it again! And not surprised. You’re definitely a LOVER!
I can’t seem to get registered either, and I don’t believe I’ve ever done this challenge before. Margaret Floyd recommended it to me and I’m eager to start!! I may even just pick myself! 🙂
Help?
Tiffany, sorry it’s not going through. I’m going to register you manually and make sure you’re in. I’ll find out what’s going wrong. Thanks for letting me know. Enjoy the Love!
You are in. You’ll be getting an email tomorrow. I think picking yourself is a grand idea. You’ll love everyone better if you love yourself first! Cheers.
