Close your eyes and ask yourself what you NEED right now.
One of my clients developed the habit of asking this question, every single day, for a year. She didn't just ask, though, she also followed through by giving herself whatever she needed.
Most of her needs had to do with self-care such as taking time to recharge, removing obligations, or setting boundaries. YOUR needs might be totally different, by the way.
Before developing this new habit she was living in constant crisis/drama mode and was overweight, very stressed, and unhappy.
It was amazing to see her literally heal and transform over time.

What do YOU need right now? Develop the daily habit of closing your eyes and asking that question - every day. Hey, it's easy to do while brushing your teeth, so maybe that's a good time for you?? Make this super easy by posting the question "What do I need today?" on your mirror so it's front and center for you to see.
Notice the answer that pops up and honor it. Then, try to give yourself what you need in the next 24 hours.
