It's Sunday, let's go!
Before reading I want you to do four box breaths.
Exhale to a count of four, holding your lungs empty for a four-count, inhaling at the same pace, and holding air in your lungs for a count of four before exhaling.
Repeat 4 times.

âť“Self-reflection question âť“
What worries me most about the future?
How to answer self-reflection questions…
Set aside time to sit and think.
Remove all distractions or take yourself off somewhere quiet.
Start with the questions that jump out to you the most.
Allow your answers to just flow – write whatever comes to mind.
Be honest. There’s no point asking yourself self-reflection questions if you’re not going to be honest with your answers.
Don’t be afraid of what you might discover. Give yourself permission to be honest, raw and real.
If it helps, try meditating on your self-reflection questions. Sit somewhere quiet. Clear your mind and with the questions in front of you, just ponder on them with no pressure or judgement. Afterwards, write down what you can remember.
