What does being "whole" look and feel like for me?

Sunday, September 24th, 2023

High achievers often focus on what is not going well instead of taking stock of what is going well. This may be because it is human nature to do the same when it comes to our health. We notice when we are in pain or hungry because our bodies send us signals that something is wrong. The same is true when we feel like something is missing or not right in our lives.

We have an opportunity to reframe our perspective. What if, instead of focusing on what is missing from our lives, we could take a moment to step back from the pain and envision what it would look like to be "whole"? Instead of trying to fill a void, we could envision the aspirational version of ourselves and work towards that? There is no one answer to the question of what it means to be "whole." It is different for everyone. I invite you to explore the look and feel of wholeness with me this week.

Below, I offer some recommended resources to assist you with the question of the week. I’ll post my reflection before the end of the week on YouTube .?
