Wellness Wednesdays: What To Expect, 2023 Goals, First Books on the Reading List | #1

01/15/23 • 17 min

Happy New Year! Back in 2020, I made the commitment to fearlessly invest in my personal growth and development, and openly share what I learn along my journey with others. This year I will be using Wellness Wednesdays as a space to be transparent about my wellness journey and provide you with insights on exactly what I am doing to create generational wellness. Here's the framework of this show:

1. Mindful Moment - I will guide us through a breathing exercise to ground us and strengthen our mindfulness muscles

2. Mindful Reflection - I will share what I learned from my experiences over the past week

3. Check-In - I will be sharing what is happening in my mind/body, how I am spending my time and energy, what I am choosing to consume, and how I am responding to what I experience

4. System Updates - I will be sharing any updates I am making to my sustainable self-care system

5. Resource Review - I will be reviewing the resources shared by Balance Period

My desire is to create a space where we learn, grow, and create generational wellness together. If you ever have any questions you would like answered on the show, email me directly at [email protected]

Remember to be patient with yourself, and be kind to yourself today 🙏🏾

With gratitude,

–Recovery Ray
