Ask Yourself-Am I OK?
Life can get busy for most people that we are used to multi-tasking without pausing to take time out to relax.
It is important to sit down, be still and focus on your emotional/mental health.
-How am I feeling right now?
-Is the stress I am feeling overwhelming/accumulating in my life? Why is it so?
-When does my body need to move, i.e. walking, running, dancing?
-Who can I talk to?
-What is the most loving and supportive thing that I can do for myself?
-Is there a boundary that I need to communicate as a way to respect my own needs?
-Is my body telling me to rest, regroup and relax?
-Are there any repetitive thoughts that I have been attached to that are no longer serving me?
-What does it mean for me to let things go so that I am not feeling overwhelmed?
