ABSTRACT

Below is a simple table to help you to identify activities in your everyday life that are either enriching or draining at a heart and soul level. On the left-hand side, identify enriching activities that make you feel good or alive, make your heart and soul sing for joy, make you feel self-compassionate or self-loving. These may not be activities you are currently involved in but would like to start doing. On the right-hand side, try to identify draining activities that you are currently involved with that make you feel exhausted, overwhelmed and depleted. If you can, try to be quite specific about each activity, so instead of just saying ‘work’ or ‘children,’ can you identify whether there is anything in particular with that activity that is either enriching or draining?
