Ritual of the Week
Morning Reunion Ritual - Saturday Reminder
As you ease into your morning, take a quiet pause to reconnect with the bright spark within you.
🧒Start by holding that Childhood Snapshot, look at your younger self and smile. Notice the light in those eyes; it’s still there.
🧠Next, close your eyes for a moment of Memory Travel. Breathe in deeply and step into one joyful childhood memory maybe you’re running barefoot in the yard or giggling under a blanket fort.
💌Open your journal and re-read your Kind-Word Letter. Let those two simple sentences warm your chest and remind you of the promise you made to keep that playful soul safe.
😄Now, choose a Playful Gesture, hum a tune from your childhood or doodle something simple, just for fun.
🤗Finally, seal it all with your Affirmation Embrace: softly whisper, “I honor my playful, resilient heart.”
