You Should Have Been There
What we discovered in our live journaling session (+ the prompts so you can try them yourself)
Hi dear ones,
The other night was SO FRIGGING MAGICAL.
In case you missed it, I hosted a live journaling session for Inner Circle members that was all about love - the real kind! We went from investigating our relationship with self-love, to getting curious about the love we give and receive from the world, and capped it off by breaking into small groups to discuss it all! Every time this group gets together I feel the same thing: safety, belonging, and CHILLNESS. Truly, if you are looking for some refuge, I HIGHLY suggest you come to the next one.
I mean, just look at this group! 😍
Even if you’re not a paying member, I still want you to get in on the action.
So, here's a little peek at what we got up to. We started with The Emotion Wheel (which I turned into a slide for ease of reading) so you don't keep defaulting to 'fine,' 'good,' or 'busy' when describing the miracle of your human life. I challenged everyone to describe how they were actually feeling.
Then it was onto the journaling prompts! Huzzah!
Prompts on Self Love
Give yourself a few minutes to answer each of these…
How do you talk to yourself on a bad day? Write down the actual words. Now read them back. Would you say those things to someone you love?
If not, what would you say to someone you love in that same situation? Write that version too.
Do you treat yourself at least as well as you would treat a guest in your home?
Prompts on External Love
Think about someone you love deeply. Write at least five specific things this person has done to help you.
If you could design the love you want in your life—forget about what’s “realistic”—what would it look like?
What’s one thing you realized about how you treat yourself or others that surprised you today?
Our Wrap Up Prompt
“The love I want to give myself starting today is . . .”
Speaking of love…I would love, love, LOVE to have you join our next live journaling session. I hold these every month for paid Inner Circle members! And so far, we’re getting tons of 5-star reviews. 🤩
