Oh yeah, it's Valentine's Day in February! Whilst we might argue that it's just a marketing ploy to get you to buy your special someone - well, anything! - we think it's a nice time to think about LOVE - like people have for hundreds of years.
So we ask you to write a post based around the theme of 'love', as it relates to healing, health and #naturalmedicine.
We've outlined a few ideas for you below - you can choose one, part of one, change one or make one up yourself!
- What are some 'self love' rituals and why are they important for our health?
- Cook a vegan Valentine's feast
- Make a healthy desert fit for your lover
- Detail an aphrosdesiac herb and how to prepare it as a tincture, balm or tea
- Roses are traditionally given as a gift to a beloved. How are they related to our health and how might they nourish/benefit us emotionally, spiritually or physically?
- What does the act of love do for us energetically, and how might we love better?
- Is love good for health?
- What herbs or medicines are good for a broken heart?
- Discuss knowledge of the heart meridian in TCM
- How can we improve our cariovascular health?
- Discuss an aspect of the heart chakra
- Write a meditation that attracts the energy of love towards our heart centre
- What herbs are associated with love or the heart?
- Make a herbal medicine that benefits the heart
Some Other Guidelines
- Due Date Saturday 20th of Febuary

Don't forget to share your link to your actual entry here, I'm not sure if your sharing the announcements one counts and maybe you need to share your day one post? I'm not the official person doing the contest though, I just want to make sure your entry gets considered! :)
Greetings, I share with you my first participation this month:

Hi @lotusshares and @naturalmedicine , what a nice contest I am just finding out about it.
I am interested in participating but I don't understand some guidelines,for example this one.
Do I have to pay an entry fee to participate in the contest?
If so, how much is the amount? It says 0
And if I already have an account with natural medicina, do I still have to pay the entry fee?
Last question, if I have to register I have 3 liquid lotuses and 4 in play, are the 3 lotuses useful as long as I am missing?
I am sorry for so many questions but I use translator, thank you, I am waiting for your answer to participate.
Questions are great!
I have 3 liquid lotuses and 4 in play, are the 3 lotuses useful as long as I am missing?Thank you, in the last question I say
I have 3 lotus and 4 in stake, or inverted.
Today I participated in an initiative and posted from the natural medicine page. Io
Today's post will allow me to participate if in the course of this week I buy all the lotus? @riverflows thank you 🤗
Hi @soyunasantacruz - I'm not the official NM person, but I see that you did your post for the first day of the self love challenge, which I think would also count for this as long as you share the link to it in the comments of this post, and buy the 20 Lotus. :)
I also sent you a share of @steembasicincome as an extra "thanks" for entering the contest! :)
!ENGAGE 50 Thanks for your help @phoenixwren - you might not be 'official' but you are officially awesome and are officially part of our community!

Hello here is my proof of purchase of 20 lotus, I do not know if it is correct, I could not catch the image as the rest.
I apologize for my lack of knowledge.
But I would like you to confirm if I did it right? @lotusshares @naturalmedicine
@soyunasantacruz placed a buy order of 20 LOTUS at 0.06410000 SWAP.HIVE/LOTUS
Thankyuou!
