Your Weekly Wake-Up w/ AP

Does resting make you anxious?

It’s time to cut the bullsh*t and get serious about using December to experience RADICAL REST so you can create epic sh*t in 2024.

Today’s coaching lesson is all about using rituals + routines as tools for rest. Whether you prefer the word ritual or routine, the key is to create practices that feel intentional and help decrease anxiety.

If you feel anxious about resting more this month, here's some key takeaways from a Harvard Business School study about how Rituals Improve Performance by Decreasing Anxiety:

Anxiety drains working memory & impairs information processing

Anxiety impairs the ability to take another person’s perspective

Anxiety negatively influences risk-seeking and self-confidence

State anxiety has been shown to lower self-efficacy

Low self-efficacy adversely affects decision-making and behavior

Those who experience anxiety seek out and rely more heavily on advice – even when the advice is of low quality – due to their lack of confidence in their own ability to make good judgments!

I'll teach you how to create INTENTIONAL rituals in just five steps.

1️⃣ Get Present

2️⃣ Define the highest friction part of your day

3️⃣ Reveal the “spark moment”

4️⃣ Generate a solution

5️⃣ Create your ritual
