Welcome everyone! As we talked about, the first skill in recovery is learning to stop doing what you think you should do, and start doing what your body needs.
This is how we practice the Daily Energy Scan here in the Zero-Guilt Zone:
Your Action, Based on Your Energy (1-10 Scale):
If You Are...Your Action is...1-3 (Alarm Zone)REST ONLY. This is an emergency. Zero movement. Zero guilt.
4-6 (Maintenance)Micro-Action. (E.g., 10 minutes of light stretching or a slow walk.)
7-10 (Building)The 70% Rule. (Go for your planned gentle movement, but stop before you hit 100%.)
Your Zero-Guilt Challenge Today:
Let’s practice this mindset shift right now. This is a judgement-free zone.
- Where is your energy today (1-10)?
- What is the Zero-Guilt Action you will commit to based on that number?
Example: "I am a 4/10 today. My action is 5 minutes of focused breathing, and I will not feel guilty for cancelling my walk."
