Happy August! This challenge is for the ones who feel like rest is weakness,
who’ve made strength their whole personality,
and who are finally ready to choose themselves — gently, without apology.
1. Move Your Body once a Day: your workout can be gentle: yoga, walking, stretching, or dance.
Increase intensity based on your own personal needs. Keep your goals realistic.
2. Honor your nervous system. Some days, stillness is strength.
3. Drink 1 Gallon of Water: Infuse it with herbs, fruit, or intention. Speak affirmations over it if you feel called.
4. Journal Daily (Free Write or Prompted)
Answer 1 of these:
“What am I unlearning today?”
“What triggered me today and what did it teach me?”
“What part of me needs love right now?”
“Who was I today, and who do I want to become?”
5. Stick to a Food Plan: Define your own version: Clean eating? Anti-inflammatory? No sugar? No takeout? You can build in a weekly “soul food day” — intentional joy, not mindless eating.
6. Do One Act of Softness or Self-Affection DAILY
Examples:
Skin care routine
Say “no” without apology
Play your favorite 90s playlist and dance
Light a candle and say your name out loud like a prayer
Laugh deeply
Go to sleep early
*Bonus Rules:
Take a daily photo (not for aesthetics — to witness your becoming).
No substitutions, no days off. If you miss something, start over.
One cheat day? Nope. Healing doesn’t pause for convenience.

Let’s be soft, sacred, and selfish on purpose.
