Hot Independence Day!

Here's a great exercise to celebrate Independence Day!

Write your own Bill of Rights

A little background...
The United States Bill of Rights is made up of the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution. Here's a link to check out the U.S. Bill of Rights for reference (It can be fun to use some of the same wording in your own Bill of Rights)!


Here's the fun, and relevant part...
You can keep amending the constitution of your life!  Continue to offer yourself more freedoms to be your best you!
Now fram it and hang that mutha up!

Note: Sometimes we're trapped in feeling that we don't have any rights to be ourselves or to advocate for ourselves.  An example might be moms who don't feel that they have time for themselves, but more importantly don't believe that they deserve to have time for themselves.  Write your right down anyway!  What's the harm?  It's okay for your Bill of Rights to start from a place that you see as a dream world.  This can be an exercise to secure your rights to be yourself, but it can also be a start to thinking about what you deserve.  We can work on why you deserve that world in later exercises, or in coaching.


Have a safe and fun 4th of July Everyone!
