I’m wondering if a daily first-step-of-the-day check-in might be useful for you.

I’m wondering if a daily first-step-of-the-day check-in might be useful for you. Here are some prompts—

How are you feeling?
Are you up for the day? If yes, fantastic. If no, how do you get there?
Think about yesterday. What things did you notice that you are grateful for?
Are you willing to stay present in today? If yes, fantastic. If no, how do you get there?
Do you have any fears, worries, or frustrations you need to release?
Do you have any tasks, appointments, calls, or conversations that you need to explore or prepare for?
Anything else?

Self-care for today: What small thing can you do for yourself in 10 - 15 minutes? Where does it fit into the day?

Overall, take 5-10 minutes to quiet, center, and enter the day…

You can do it.

Take care of yourselves,

Bob.
