Journalling:
1. How do you feel about making your body’s journey a sacred experience? A walk through holy ground? Does it open up possibility? Scare you? Irritate you? Does it feel sinful?
2. Have you ever had to cancel commitments because of your body’s state? How did you feel about having to do that? How did you feel about your body for *forcing* you do do that?
3. How were you taught to treat your body? Who was your role-model for self-care and body love?
4. Are any more ideas for what to slow / stop / start popping up?
5. We’ll talk more about sleep in a future Module but, for now, how is your sleep? Do you feel refreshed when you wake up? Do you fall asleep easily? Stay asleep easily? Do you remember the last time you had a great sleep and woke up ready to jump out of bed and get on with your day?
6. How do you feel about this idea that the decline with aging might be largely optional?
