You are enough
Overacheivers Syndrome:
You are enough
Many of us think we have to do more, acheive more, have higher grades and scores to be "ENOUGH". The reality is that, just as you are, you are enough, perfect and wonderful. You are a valuable person on this planet.
Journal prompts:
-Why do you work yourself so hard? Go deep, what's the real reason?
-What are the costs of working yourself so hard, are you losing sleep, relationships, or joy?
-What qualities do you value most in others. Character qualities, not achievement or success. Now, what 5 qualities about yourself do you value most?

Mindful Breathing
Mindful Breathing
Mindful breathing can take many forms. The most common is box breathing. Box breathing consists of four simple steps:
Inhale deeply through your nose, expanding your stomach, for a count of 4
Hold in that breath for a count of four
Slowly exhale all the air through your mouth, contracting your stomach, for a count of four
Hold the empty breath for a count of four
There are also alternate nostril techinques of breathing, bellow breaths and more! This is a good place to start....
