Countdown: Day 3 of 5 Days to Releasing Extremism and Fear

In today's busy world, we often find ourselves vacillating between what we intuitively know is good for us and what others say we ought to be doing. We know it's good to take care of our physical, emotional and spiritual needs, yet something keeps pulling us back into old self-destructive habits. Like a magnet or a moth to the flame, the draw into forgetfulness is a powerful Sacred Cow - one that is fully supported by the media and our educational systems.

This collective and societal agreement unconsciously drives us to various forms of unproductive behavior including:
1. Disrespecting ourselves.
2. Feeling that we can't ask for help.
3. Ignoring messages from our bodies to rest and recuperate.
4. Feeling guilty for our own heart-felt desires.

These and other forms of self-abuse are tied into the Sacred Cow for today:

"It's not okay to take good care of myself."

As you play today's game, ask yourself what you really want. Is taking care of yourself important? On a scale of one to ten, where do you rate taking care of yourself? And what would you do differently if you could?

Releasing your part with this agreement helps you to step out of the feedback loop, rebalance yourself and determine what's really important.

When you heal yourself, you heal the world.
