We often don’t take the time to stop and ask ourselves how we are doing. Some days we don’t even remember what we had for lunch.

Checking in with yourself is a way of addressing what you may be needing or lacking. It can improve your mood, energy, relationships, and productivity.

Physical and Emotional Needs

  • What do I need at this moment?
  • How am I feeling today?
  • How can I be gentle with myself?
  • What’s taking up most of my headspace right now?
  • Do I feel physically and emotionally safe?

Identifying Problems

  • What am I holding onto that is no longer serving me?
  • Are my actions or behaviors reflecting the values or beliefs that I hold?
  • What can I let go of that’s getting in the way of my health and well-being?
  • Would getting professional help me feel better?

Self-Care

  • What am I doing today to feel good?
  • How can I show myself love?
  • What have I done lately to feel happier?
  • What can I thank myself for?
  • What can I forgive myself for?

Habits and Routines

  • What/when was my last meal?
  • Has anything changed in my life that is affecting my eating or sleeping habits?
  • How much sleep did I get last night?
  • Did I move my body today?
