Take Yourself on a Solo Movie Date

“One of my favorite solo Valentine’s Days was when I took myself on a movie date. I picked a film I knew I’d love, grabbed my favorite snacks, and just enjoyed the experience without worrying about anyone else’s preferences. It was simple, but it made me realize that Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be about romantic love — it can just be about love, period. Love for myself, for my life, and for the things that make me happy.” Stephanie Edenburgh, 36, San Diego, California

Writing with Soul

As an educator and the founder of your writing community, you counsel people on writing. What are some tips you can offer?

I like telling folks to write from the belly, not the brain. Meaning, when I’m doing a first draft, I’m not writing with an internal editor. There’s so much time to think about editing, cutting, and form later. But a critical eye now isn’t helpful, just like a critical eye wouldn’t be helpful if you’re sitting down to meditate. You’re trying to unarchive what is there, what is present, what is with you, and what wants to come to the surface. The beautiful thing is that it always emerges, it just needs space. – Joy Sullivan
