Let’s keep this week practical and loving.

Each day, try one of the following:

  1. Journal Prompt: “The last time I had a strong craving, what did I really need?”
  2. Craving Rescue Kit: Make a kit with 3 sensory tools—essential oil, tea, soothing playlist—to reach for before a craving hits.

  4. Affirmation Practice: Stand in front of a mirror, take a deep breath, and say: “I deserve nourishment, not punishment.”
