Empower Your Magical Self with a One Month Habit Break is a Project created to help you take a temporary or permanent break from any habit. It’s based on my own experiences and rooted in neuroscience, somatics, polyvagal theory, metaphysics, psychology, and energy work. It can easily be adjusted to work with any habit you’d like to cut back on, as it’s all about growing toward the reality you want, not beating yourself up for something you “can’t stop”. Want to eat less junk? Quit smoking? Spend less cash on stuff you don’t need? Stop gossiping or gambling? Just adjust the Project to fit your needs. How the Project Works The Project is divided into four weeks, each of which is broken into Daily Offerings. At the end of each Daily Offering there’s either a Prompt or an Exercise to support the idea presented that day. Week 1: Excavation Each Daily Offering of Week 1 consists of a prompt to help you get clarity on your relationship with your habit. You’ll be asked to probe into why the habit started and why taking a break is in order for your well-being. On Day 6 of Week 1, you’ll use what you discover to write an oath to yourself regarding the habit - just for the length of this project. You’ll re-examine your intention for the habit at the end of the month. Week 2: Tools Week 2 offers a new physical practice each day to support your Habit Break. These are quick actions that can be practiced immediately and easily incorporated into your life, today. The idea here is that the second week might be a bit of a grind in terms of dealing with the habit you’re working with, so each day offers a tool to use if/when you’re triggered or have a craving. Week 3: Strategies Each Daily Offering of Week 3 delves a bit deeper into the psychology and energy behind habits, and offers ideas to help you shift your perspective during the Project and beyond. Week 4: Going Deep Week 4’s Daily Offerings deal with what may be considered more “alternative” ideas and methodologies,
