Everyone who joined the 30 Days of Enlightenment journey very likely did so with the intention of changing something in their lives. The desire for change is an excellent motivator that often leads us to new opportunities and experiences.
When we become willing to release old behavior and habits that aren’t serving us anymore, there are typically two options we need to consider: abstinence or moderation.
Moderation Excercise:
- Make a list of 5 behaviors that you want to change. You can include whatever you wish–stuff like drinking soda, eating fast food, smoking, creating debt, etc.
- Go through the list and cross over the ones you want to get rid of entirely. Then circle the ones you want to keep doing in moderation.
- Next, to each circled item write down the desired frequency (boundaries) for that behavior on a weekly/monthly basis. (Example: drinking soda – once a week, eating fast food – twice a month, etc.).
