Valentine’s Day is almost here and what better way to celebrate love than with homemade sweets? Mona Green, Life Coach at Namasme, shares, “Baking can cultivate love and foster healthy relationships because it's an experience that facilitates the expression of a good number of our love languages. For example, you can bake as an act of service for a birthday, bake a gift for a sick friend, bake with a loved one to spend quality time with each other and to create opportunities for physical touch!”
