06 Jan 8-Day REPLENISH Self-Care Challenge
This is for all you moms, and women, and caretakers out there.
The holidays are over. The kids are heading back to school (hallelujah!).
Now what?
It’s time for YOU.
Yes, it’s time to finally take care of that one thing that should always be at the top of your list but is too often forgotten.
It’s time to restore your energy, recharge your batteries, and yes, replenish yourself–body, mind, and spirit.
It’s time for powerful self-care.
The 8-Day REPLENISH Self-Care Challenge
Let’s face it, this is the time of year when we women and moms and caretakers are worn out from trying to “get it all done” and “make everyone happy.” It’s been one of the busiest times of year, and when you’re the one making it all happen, it can leave you feeling depleted, to say the least.
What can we do?
REPLENISH.
That’s right. Replenish.
This isn’t your typical New Year’s challenge, or even like any I’ve done before, because the whole point of this challenge is to create a new approach to the New Year, to the things you’d like to change and the things you’d like to keep.
This isn’t a pushing, forcing way to start the New Year; it’s a gentle, loving way.
It isn’t a “set ‘x’ amount of goals I must achieve this month” way. It’s a “take care of myself in powerful ways and see how it makes me feel” kind of way.
The beauty is that this challenge is all about caring for YOU. And when you care for YOU, you’ll magically find yourself achieving more goals, feeling happier, and becoming who you desire to be.
Why REPLENISH?
Because that’s what most of us need right now. We need to “fill [ourselves] up again,” to “make good,” and to “restore.”
We need to “fill with inspiration or power”–ourselves, that is.
And so, the word REPLENISH became the inspiration for this challenge, and for all it will entail.
What is this “Self-Care Challenge” all about?
This challenge focuses on 8 core areas of replenishment, or self-care. Each day, participants will focus on one area, learn some principles and skills related to the topic, and then select one way to practice that self-care principle that day.
This will help us to REPLENISH, focusing on the following principles:
Day 1: Recharge
Day 2: Energize
Day 3: Play
Day 4: Love
Day 5: Enjoy
Day 6: Nurture
Day 7: Inspire
Day 8: SHare
Each day, I’ll be going live on social media to teach one of these principles of self-care.
I’ll share:
1) the psychology and research behind each principle,
2) the deeper understanding and meaning of the principle,
3) specific strategies for how to implement the principle into daily life, and
4) a daily challenge to practice that principle.
That’s it.
You sign up. You get an email each day with a couple helpful ideas, suggestions, and tools. You tune in to the live masterclass sessions and learn with me. You put at least one of the suggestions into play that day and give it a try.
Then, you report on how it’s going, in our Facebook group, via email, or by commenting on the daily posts.
And we see what a little intentional self-care, in these 8 core areas, can do for you.
What can this do for you?
Simple as it may seem, intentional self-care is powerful self-care. It’s powerful, because it unleashes our power–our energy, creativity, inspiration, love, light. It helps us tune in to what we need in the moment–to listen to our bodies and emotions, but not let them rule us. It allows us to take back control of who we are and how we want to be in this world.
Then, as we focus on goals or dreams or whatever we most desire to achieve, we do so from the place of self-love, and not from the place of perfectionism, self-punishment, or fear.
That’s the bottom line of this challenge: It’s learning to ask, “What’s the LOVING thing to do/say/be in this moment?” instead of, “What’s the right/good/best thing for me to do?”
Because sometimes, the “right” (ideal, perfect) thing to do or be is hard to figure out (or doesn’t really exist)…but the “loving” thing? It’s usually right there in front of us. It’s learning to lead with the heart and the spirit instead of the thoughts and emotions. It’s learning who you really are, and being more of her.
How do I join?
It’s simple.
Simply click the link here, or in the images above and below, register, and you’re in.
You should receive a welcome email with all the details right away, and you’ll also receive emails throughout the 8 days, with inspiration, encouragement, and bonus tools just for those registered, including free audio downloads, exercises, and worksheets to help you REPLENISH your body-mind-spirit these next 8 days.
Then, be sure you’re following me on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, and tune in for the daily LIVE masterclass sessions. Your emails will give you all the details about when/where I’ll be, so you can join us live or watch the replay later.
And finally…
Whether you join me in this challenge or not (and I really hope you will), the thing I wish most for you is to live with self-compassion, self-kindness, and self-love through self-care.
It means more than you likely realize, and there’s always something we can do to improve. Self-care is the key to self-love and self-worth, and the key to loving others and helping them see their worth, too.
Let’s REPLENISH this coming week, and see what a difference it can make.
