Place a favorite cushion in a quiet spot and sit with it for five slow breaths.
Set a simple intention: ‘I receive what I need now.’
Notice where your body softens; name one area that needs care.
Commit one small outward act of care (tea, message, rest) before sleep.
Affirmation
“I allow softness where I need support and hold clear, kind boundaries.”

Create a tiny comfort corner (a cushion, light, and five minutes) and observe what turns up.
