Start with one thing.

Maybe it’s making dinner, getting out for a walk, or doing something you used to look forward to. Think of one specific time it came up, even if you didn’t end up doing it.

Read the cooking example

Think about the last time you considered making dinner. Where did it start to feel hard? Maybe you couldn’t decide what to make, felt too tired to stand and chop, or realized how different it felt to cook alone.

What might help depends on the part that felt hard. You might pick a familiar meal ahead of time, sit at the table to prep, or ask someone to cook with you.

Inside the guide, you’ll find three prompts with room to reflect on an activity you’d like to do. Read it on your device or print it at home. Payhip provides the PDF after checkout.
