My body is telling me I need ______ today.

Sometimes our bodies speak loudly — through flare-ups, pain, or exhaustion. Other times, the messages are more subtle — maybe we’re not sleeping well, having strange dreams, or dealing with symptoms that come and go. Either way, our bodies have a way of letting us know when something’s off and we need to slow down, take care of ourselves, or seek more professional help.

Maybe your body’s saying, “Hey, drink some water,” or “It’s time to adjust your meds,” or even, “You really need to talk about what’s been stressing you out.”

What’s your body telling you it needs today? How is it trying to get your attention?

Where are the safe spaces in your life?

A safe space (whether in person or virtual) can be a location, mindset, or way of navigating circumstances that feels comfortable for your body and nervous system. These spaces allow you to be your authentic self and to challenge limiting beliefs or fears without judgment.

Where in your life do you feel safe? What makes those spaces comfortable for you?

What’s on your weekend not-to-do list?

With the endless amount of “to-dos” piling up during the week, it can help to even out the scales by creating a not-to-do list for the weekend. Think of it as permission to rest, recharge, and let go of things that don’t need your energy right now.

What can you take a break from in the next two days? What can you cut yourself some slack on? What can you intentionally say “no” to?

Some ideas to spark your list:
❤️ Not folding the laundry right away — it can live in the basket.
🩵 Not answering every text or email — “seen” is enough sometimes.
🩷 Not multitasking — single-tasking (or zero-tasking) is perfectly fine.
🧡 Not pretending you have more energy than you actually do — your body deserves honesty.
🩶 Not feeling guilty for napping (or binge-watching that comfort show in bed).
💜 Not comparing your weekend to anyone else’s highlight reel.
💛 Not wearing “real clothes” if pajamas or sweats feel better.
💚 Not ignoring your needs — whether that’s more rest, hydration, or quiet time.

Your not-to-do list is yours to write. ✨

So tell us: What’s going on yours this weekend?
