A one-of-a-kind handwritten note from Dr. Martin Luther King recently went up for auction. He was asked about the meaning of love. He wrote, “Love is the greatest force in the universe. It is the heartbeat of the moral cosmos.”

Ah, love. It binds us with our families, partners, and friends. But relationships aren't just about love, of course—they also require mutual respect, trust, communication, and sometimes even forgiveness. And let's not forget to nurture the most important type of love: self-love. Let’s talk about manifesting love, improving our relationships, and creating the right mindset to love ourselves.

How can you expand the love in your life?

Love is abundant and unlimited. If you’ve ever held a newborn baby (or even a four-legged furry child) in your arms, you’ve probably experienced your capacity for love growing even beyond what you thought was possible. You can manifest more love whether you’re in a committed relationship, looking for a partner, or building a loving relationship with yourself.

Are you in a committed relationship or marriage that feels a little stale? You may wish for the fire and romance from your early days—you know, the “honeymoon phase.” Back in the day when sparks flew, and possibilities felt endless. That passionate love is still there, buried underneath... it just takes some intentionality to find it again!

Or maybe you’ve been looking for a partner, but you’re frustrated with the dead-end dates. You’d rather spend the rest of your life alone than swipe left one more time! What’s the secret to finding a mate who loves you the way you deserve to be loved? Love yourself first! It's like RuPaul says, "If you don't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?”

Remember how much light you have to offer the world through love. If you’re in a relationship that feels stuck, try taking purposeful actions like holding hands and practicing affectionate touch. Remember how good that felt?

Carve out time in your calendar just to spend time with a partner. It’s a sign of respect for your relationship and helps foster communication. Maintain a sense of curiosity, especially when you’re in a situation when you need to practice forgiveness.

As for finding the love of your life, this may sound counter-intuitive but hear us out! You receive what you attract. If you're feeling unworthy of love, you'll attract suitors who respond to that energy. Instead, go deep and get in touch with your inner light. You have an infinite amount of love to give, so wrap yourself up in it. Before you go out with other people, take yourself on a date!

These stones can help unlock the relationships you deserve through intentional wishing and reminders to choose love, every day.
