I've mulled it over enough to share with you some of what I've come up with.
So, here's the beginning of trying to figure out how to specifically Honor myself: It makes sense to me to figure out the categories of my life and look at them for ways I honor or dishonor myself in that category.
And the Categories are:
- Fitness & Health
- Romance & Sexuality
- Financial Freedom
- Parenting
- Spirituality
- Immediate Family
- Friends & Family of Origin
- ? (I don’t know what to call this category)
My first thought for the name of “? (I don’t know what to call this category)” was ME. Then I realized that I AM ALL of the categories listed. So, this last one is really just a category to remind me to pamper myself, to baby myself, to remember to enjoy myself. In essence - to honor myself.
I'm not going to post what I came up with when I looked at each of the categories in relation to honoring myself. What I will write was that it was a very enlightening process. I'm so glad I did it and I recommend anyone looking for this type of clarity to do the same.
I found out that I honor myself more than I thought.
I found out that the areas I don't honor myself are easily rectified.
After doing this I now have a list of things I can do under each of those categories that will help me to know that I do honor me. And when I start honoring me others will too.
Again I'm not going to share each of these activities. What I will share is the one I find the most fun:
Category: ? (I don’t know what to call this category)
During one of Z's naps per week I will do one or more of the following: facial, nails, read a novel, sleep, play a game or something else I find that's fun.

Phew! I'm so glad I finally finished this part of the process and now I can put it in action.
