This month, rather than looking for the perfect gift or planning the perfect date, I’d like to encourage you to seek how you can effectively communicate love to those in your life— including yourself.

Thank you for supporting our advertisers and business partners as you eat out, shop for home improvements and complete your “honey-do” list.

The truth is, love can look and feel differently to every person. One of my favorite books is The 5 Love Languages by Gary D. Chapman. This book suggests people feel love through receiving: words of affirmation, acts of service, gifts, quality time and physical touch.

E

It’s February and love is definitely in the air! I think the best part about love is that, as we age, we gain wisdom to understand that love is more than a pounding in our hearts, but rather a commitment to care deeply for others as we seek to help meet their needs.

Know your strengths Focus on your strengths and use them daily. List them out so you never forget them. The more you live within your strengths, the less your weaknesses will matter.

LOVE YOURSELF

YOU

Take care of the special person that you are

Exercise regularly Regular exercise can transform your life. As Richard Branson says, one hour of exercise equals four extra hours of productivity, so make time for exercise.

This month make it a priority to apply some of these ideas to take better care of yourself.

Forgive yourself and others Forgive the people who harmed you and forgive yourself for your own mistakes. It will liberate you from pain, anger, resentment and negativity.

Stop over-thinking Life is an unfolding adventure. Sometimes overthinking can get you into trouble. Don’t miss the journey by being stuck in your head.

Embrace a positive mindset Remember who you are and who you aspire to be. Be nice to everyone, support people and their dreams and love like you want to be loved. We can all be kinder.

Be still Find somewhere beautiful—a park, the woods, your backyard—and just sit and be still. Absorb the sound of the wind through the trees, the light and the shadows, the peace...it’s meditative and calming.

Unplug Create sacred spaces in your days or weeks where you unplug from everything. No email or internet. We are turning into an ADD society, jumping from one distraction to another. Seize control so you don’t burn out your own emotional hardware.

Cherish true friends Surround yourself with true friends—people who’ve seen you at your worst and love you even more for it.

Friends who selflessly love you for you, without any agenda. Those friends are priceless.

TIP 3 Cinnamon in the garden? Yep, cinnamon is a natural fungicide, and you can use it on cuts on flowers to help the plant root. Simply dip the cut end in cinnamon powder before rooting.

TIP 4 Use clingwrap over the top of a coffee mug or tumbler in order to take your drink “to go.”

Just create a small hole at the edge of the cup for sipping, or poke a straw through the center for easy access.

Only sign an agreement offering you real protections in your timeshare exit. Specifically, any agent you hire should be aligned with your interests, agreeing in writing to cover all timeshare fees or legal fees, that arise during the exit process for a flat fee.

TIMESHARES Read the fine print

REAL ESTATE

Research your exit company’s credentials (through the Better Business Bureau, the state’s attorney general, consumer protection agencies and a general internet search) looking for a minimum five-year track record of success. Beware of companies that make it hard for you to research them.

It’s estimated that at any given time, there are over 1 million timeshare owners looking to end their timeshare ownership. Unfortunately, exiting can be more complex than expected. There are several ways to do so, be it via a sale, transfer or cancellation, but no matter how you part ways with your timeshare, it’s important to protect yourself by having a good handle on the industry. Here are some insights to anyone who owns a timeshare: The fine print in your timeshare agreements may be the reason you can’t sell it. Many resort developers see the resale market as a direct threat to their revenue stream and have accordingly rigged the system in their favor. For example, some resorts restrict rights and benefits for owners who purchase their timeshares on the resale market, intentionally devaluing your timeshare while also making it harder for you to unload.

If an exit deal sounds too good to be true—it probably is! Be wary of phone solicitors telling you someone has a buyer, or anyone advising you to stop paying your timeshare mortgage or maintenance fees, “donate your timeshare” programs, or anyone marketing a guaranteed timeframe for the exit. These should all be red flags you take note of.

For more tips and insights, visit www.myexitguide.com to download a free copy of “The Consumer’s Guide to Timeshare Exit” or call 888-344-9776.

INVEST IN YOUR PARTNER

Rekindle the romance in your marriage

Experts say that a continually fulfilling relationship requires establishing and maintaining a complete connection. Try these tips to increase the connection in your marriage: Keep dating No matter how busy you become, you should never stop having the kind of fun you had when you were courting. Whether it’s hiking beautiful trails, going to concerts or giving and attending parties, these activities should be carried into any long-term relationship if you intend to have a meaningful romantic life together and a healthy emotional connection.

Communicate Don’t allow gender stereotypes to lead you to discount each other’s feelings or opinions as irrational.

Ritualize contact time Couples need ritualized contact time in which they get together, such as going to lunch once a week, having coffee together in the morning or watching a television program they both like. This is one of the most important components of having a close, emotionally intimate relationship.

Speak the language of love Emotional intimacy has its own language, the language of endearment. Focus on all the right features of your partner—the personal qualities you saw when you first met and still appreciate, and start to verbalize that information. If your partner reciprocates, it will create a feeling of closeness. These words don’t have to be rational or logical, but they should always be a validation of the relationship you have together.

Lose your inhibitions Be open with each other about everything—including sex. Learn to lose your inhibitions so you can share your needs, desires, feelings and concerns.

Give each other space You don’t need to do everything together to have a happy relationship. In fact, the happiest couples tend to give each other the support and space needed to maintain their independent interests.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren.

Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.”

WORTH WATCHING?

First Man (PG-13) The controversial Neil Armstrong biopic “First Man” does a commendable job of putting the viewer inside the rocket. It also takes a deep dive into the personal life of Armstrong, played stoic and restrained by Ryan Gosling.

Armstrong had a rocky road to the moon, from test pilot crashes to personal tragedy, and director Damien Chazelle highlights his perseverance through the perilous space race—lost personnel and failed missions that might have sent less enduring astronauts reeling. The film is certainly worthwhile even if only for the NASA history lessons it imparts.

Johnny English Strikes Again (PG) Returning as the titular Johnny English, the surprise spy who’s wholly and perhaps delightfully unaware that he’s ridiculously out of his element, is Rowan Atkinson. A cyberattack has revealed the identities of all the British operatives, so Agent English is called up to investigate and find the cyberbrains behind the attack. The gag is that Johnny English is a rotary phone in a cellular world, and gag after gag after pratfall and awkward situation reminds us of it. You either get Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) or you don’t. If you do, you’ll like this movie.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

Those who study such things say that if all the gold in the world were combined in one lump, it would result in a cube that measures 20 yards on each side.

The acids in your digestive system are so corrosive that your stomach must produce an entirely new lining every three days.

If you’re planning to travel to Washington state with nefarious plans, here’s an interesting law to keep in mind: Any motorist with criminal intent is required to stop before entering a town and inform the chief of police of his or her presence.

Considering their unsavory reputation, you might be surprised to learn that jackals often help raise their younger siblings, even after they’re fully grown.

If you want to have an especially memorable (and chilly) vacation, consider heading to Finnish Lapland. There, more than 150 miles north of the Arctic Circle, you can stay at the Kakslauttanen Hotel. The quarters aren’t luxurious, but the sights are amazing. All the accommodations are geodesic glass igloos, offering amazing views of the aurora borealis.
