Congratulations on completing the quiz on self-abandonment and high achievement! If you scored 0-8, you are prioritizing yourself and your needs. You are in-tune with yourself and rely less on external factors to feel fulfilled and at peace.If you scored 9-20, you are likely sacrificing one or more areas of yourself for achievement. Being aware of this is truly the first step toward honoring yourself and cultivating a more empowering relationship with yourself.I want to share with you something that was eye-opening to me when I recognized I was self-abandoning. I was confident in my ability to accomplish things in life, but I lacked worthiness. I didn't realize I was worthy of so much more than I was providing myself and you are too!You are worthy of your own love. You are worthy of feeling seen and heard. You are worth of your own time and energy. You are worthy of honoring your own needs even if it meets resistance from others. You are worthy of peace in your life. You are worthy of feeling fulfilled without having to achieve the next big goal. You are worthy of health and taking care of yourself.Here are 3 things you can do right now to honor yourself.1. Do physiological sighs. Take a deep breath through your nose, hold the breath for a second, then take another sip of air. Hold it for 3 seconds then slowly release your breath. Repeat 5-10 times. This helps transition your nervous system into a more restful state.3. Reframe the questions you ask yourself. When you're in the thick of stress and business, you may be asking yourself "what else am I going to have to deal with? or "why is this happening to me?" When you ask questions like these, it sets your mind up to subconsciously find answers, but the answers you will receive will only continue the cycle. Instead, ask yourself "How is this working for me?" You may not have an answer and that is OK. The power of this is that you will put your subconscious mind to work to gain a different perspective, which is essential for rewiring the brain for peace and fulfillment.2. Thank yourself. Literally write yourself a thank you note. What did you do for yourself today? Did you get outside? Did give yourself a moment of quiet? Did you put your phone away and play with your child undistracted. Did you take a few extra minutes in the shower because it felt good? Whatever it is, give yourself some recognition.Learn how you can break free from dysfunctional patterns of self-abandonment by booking a complimentary call!Book It Here!Want more free resources?Listen to my podcast on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube!Visit my Website
