It doesn’t need to be a grand gesture - it could be as simple as saying yes to a nap in the middle of the day, reading something from your TBR list, trying a new restaurant, turning music up loud and having a dance party or signing up for the class or experience you’ve been considering.
Saying YES to prioritizing yourself is something that takes practice. And it’s not just the practice of taking the action…but also the practice of ENJOYING it and being present!
How many times have you felt guilty for taking time for yourself or spent the whole time thinking about all the things you have to do or what you could have done to be more productive? And then the worst part is when you feel guilty for feeling guilty.😝
Let’s prioritize ourselves! I want to encourage you to set an intention to do something for YOU starting today! Give yourself permission on this 🌑New Moon. The Moon turns new around 8:30 pm PST tonight, but there is no need to be perfect, so just take a few minutes in the next day or two to write yourself a permission slip or intention to prioritize yourself. If you did the full Moon release, two weeks ago, take a moment to reflect on what you released and try to support that release with your intention.
Let me know your decision; not only would I love to cheer you on but sharing it with someone else can enhance your success. 💕
If you want to dig even deeper into practicing some happy habits and saying YES to yourself, I'll share the simple Light 56 ABC Framework for building habits below. If you’d like to give it a try on your own, you can simply follow the structure and download the free tracker here.
✨As Simple as ABC - Light 56 Framework ✨
Here’s how to build habits and feel lighter in your life in 56 days. It is simple, flexible, feminine and effective. Over 56-days you practice three habits (A, B & C), each with a different purpose, but connected by the goal to feel lighter in your life - mind, body, space & calendar!
A: Anchor - a quick & easy habit that can be done anytime of day. Goal: create confidence in your ability to build a habit (56 times in 56 days)
B: Bright Light - a practice connected to joy, gratitude, calm or feeling fully alive & bright. Goal: practice resetting if you miss a day & find what light feels like for you (40+ times in 56 days)
C: Challenge - make progress on a goal or something you’ve been putting off or that will help you feel lighter. Goal: practice progress not perfection (30+ times in 56 days)
By tracking these habits over 56-days you’ll build confidence, learn to break the all-or-nothing mindset and feel lighter in your life.
Why 56-days? It’s 8-weeks, 2 moon cycles or 4 Fortnights ✨ which is very feminine, an opportunity to experiment and the perfect amount of time to see real change (and complete a 30-day challenge).
Have a beautiful new moon evening.
