Self-reflection – what is in your cup?

After reading the previous page, which explores different pain contributors within the context of the “cup analogy”, now is the time to take a moment to reflect on how this specifically relates to you. Write down some of the things that are in your cup and might be contributing to your pain.

As you keep reading through this book, you may want to come back and add more to your cup.

After focusing on the things that may be a problem and contributing to your pain, now is the time to shift the focus to the positive things that could make your cup bigger. Also, what do you think you could do to make your cup bigger?

You should keep writing these things down, maybe even sticking them on your fridge as a constant reminder of the things that make you strong.
