Your Implementation Tasks For This Week:
Implementation 1) VALUES EXERCISE
As shown during the tutorial provided within today’s training (timestamp: 00:40), go to https://personalvalu.es/ and do a test to figure out what your core values are.
With the awareness of your top values, you’ll be able to assess why you may be feeling or reacting a certain way to particular people or situations, giving you more control to change it (should that be helpful). It also allows you to actively maximise congruence and minimise in-congruence within your life – supposedly, the secret to long lasting happiness. This is all about knowing yourself on a deeper level in order to build on that relationship with yourself.
Implementation 2) BECAUSE EXERCISE
As shown during the tutorial provided within today’s training (timestamp: 00:48), add “because” on to the end of EVERYTHING. Here, we are training your brain to notice what’s worth loving, and the ways in which we give this love in order to improve the relationship you have with yourself, and thus, the way you feel about yourself.
As you narrate your day within your head, I want you to add “because” on to the end of everything.
“I’m just off to pick up my child… BECAUSE I’m a caring mother”
“I’m just about to start some work on my new coaching programme, BECAUSE I genuinely want to help people and make an impact”
“I’m going to go run a bath… BECAUSE It’s a nice thing for me to do for myself”
“I’m going to take 10 minutes to myself….BECAUSE I’ve noticed that I need to tend to myself within this moment, through great awareness, and a compassion for myself”
Adding these “because” statements allow you to do things intentionally, which means you’ll gain a whole load more out of it.
Think back to romantic partners when they do something we admire, we always follow it up with “awww they’re so lovely/kind/helpful” – we never do this for ourselves so it’s easy to get unappreciative of who we are.
This is another one of those things that gets practised opportunistically, and will eventually become a habit.
Implementation 3) 6-FEET AWAY EXERCISE
As shown during the tutorial provided within today’s training (timestamp: 00:50), every day stand 6 feet away from a mirror and say to yourself “I love you. You’re beautiful”
At 6-feet away our brain blurs out any and all imperfections, giving you the freedom to create this new neural network (positive self image) without interruptions.
Implementation 4) ADDING TO YOUR DAILY FOCUS RE-TRAINING PROMPTS
As shown during the tutorial provided within today’s training (timestamp: 00:53), add a couple new questions to your daily focus re-training questions that cause you to reflect on yourself in a positive way and pay attention to the parts you DO like. You can consult your alignment audit to help with this, look at the sections on self talk, focus and self care.
E.g.
“In what way today did I nourish myself?”
“In what way today was I beautiful?”
“In what way today was I kind to myself?”
Implementation 5) ENSURING YOU HAVE SELF CARE IN YOUR LIFESTYLE DESIGN
As shown during the tutorial provided within today’s training (timestamp: 00:55), consult your alignment audit to find a list of all the things you said you wanted to do for yourself and make sure they are inside your lifestyle design.
