To discover your needs, make space for yourself. Be alone, in your own presence. Pay attention to your own internal signals instead of fixating on what others want. This requires an adjustment period where you lean away from stimulus (people, distractions, media) and go inwards. It doesn’t need to be anything extreme: a little time in the morning to check in with yourself goes a long way. It’s about cultivating space for yourself instead of filling your life with noise, including the noise of what others might expect from you.

If you don’t notice things and how they make you feel you have no sense of who you are and who you want. That’s how a lot of people live—numbing out their sensitivity so they can accept disappointments. But if you choose to nurture your sensitivity you have to take responsibility for it.

I am slacking on my self care….
I need time and space to reset
When did u last meditate
When did you last move your body….
When did you last rest?

Dream…
Do something for you
Go somewhere just with you
Your inner child is your BAE

ask for the things you want, a say no to the things that you don’t
