    1️⃣ Have you ever felt unseen or drained in a relationship because of over-giving?2️⃣ What steps can you take to shift from seeking validation to honoring your own needs?3️⃣ How might balanced giving transform your relationships?

    1️⃣ Recognize the PatternAsk yourself: Are you giving because it feels good, or because you feel you have to? Awareness is the first step toward transformation.

    2️⃣ Set Clear Boundaries by Developing Self-AwarenessWhen you become used to overgiving, you often lose track of what matters to you. You have to take time to yourself to reflect on your principles and get to know your body’s signals again. You may have to re-learn what feels good and doesn’t feel good to you. Remember, boundaries are not selfish — they are essential for healthy relationships. Start small by talking to your partner about your feelings on the matter. Boundaries invite respect and create space for your own needs.

    3️⃣ Give from AbundanceOnly give when it feels joyful and aligned with your values, not out of fear of rejection or obligation. This shifts the dynamic from depletion to fulfillment.

    4️⃣ Prioritize Self-CompassionTreat yourself with the same kindness and care you offer others. Remind yourself that your worth isn’t tied to how much you give.

    1️⃣ Take a Comfortable PositionSit or stand in a way that feels grounded and secure, even if you’re on the go.

    2️⃣ Visualize a ScaleImagine a golden scale in front of you, perfectly balanced. On one side, place your needs, and on the other, place the energy you give to others. Notice how the scale feels.

    3️⃣ Restore BalanceIf the scale tips too far toward giving, imagine gently adding energy to your side — your self-care, boundaries, and joy. Watch as the scale becomes even.

    4️⃣ Affirm Your WorthRepeat to yourself, “My worth is not tied to how much I give. I honor my needs and give from a place of abundance.”

    5️⃣ Carry This Balance ForwardAs you open your eyes, commit to carrying this sense of balance into your relationships.
