Your Sacred Play Experiment 💪

Incorporating More Play for Greater Success

If we could truly understand HOW important play is for success, we’d live as goofy and playful as our dogs and kids. This guide will help you harness this secret for success.

  1. Which area of your life feels the most stagnant, and the most in need of a paradigm shift AND a huge injection of more energy and enthusiasm? It could be a particular relationship? An aspect of your work or just your career in general. It could be any area of your life at all. Trust what pops into your mind.
  2. First let’s heartstorm [yep like brainstorming but not done with the head – led by the heart] ways to play in this area of your life. Write down a list of absolutely any way you could play more in this area of your life. There are no good or bad ideas here! We’re just heartstorming to get our creative juices and spontaneous energy flowing!
  3. Now pick one! Any one! And commit to incorporating this for at least a week.
🏆
Pro Tip: If this feels really important to you – consider journaling about it daily. If you are in a big crossroads at work, or in a turning point in a relationship – I can’t encourage you enough to do this experiment and journal about it every day. PLAY MIGHT be the MISSING LINK to finding your way through this transition time. Don’t let your serious, stuck big brain try and figure it out. Overthink. Stress. Worry. Plan and Analyze yourself sick. Try PLAY!!!! Try just getting free and spontaneous and doing things with more joy and light heartedness and see what happens!?!?
