Permission to Pursue Dreams and seek happiness in your own way

Aug 08, 2024

Are you tired of living according to others' expectations? Do you feel trapped by the stories others have created about you? It's time to break free.


The "Permission postcard" exercise is a powerful way to reclaim your life and live authentically. Here's why you should give it a try:

Liberate Yourself: This exercise helps you break free from the expectations and harmful narratives imposed by others. It’s your chance to step away from what others think you should be and start living for yourself.

Create a Personal Promise: By the end of the exercise, you’ll have a physical reminder—a postcard—that symbolizes your commitment to living according to your own desires. This postcard will serve as a powerful visual reminder of your journey toward self-empowerment.

Embrace Your True Self: Making this secret agreement with yourself allows you to connect with your true desires, free from outside influences. It’s a promise to honor your authentic self and to pursue what genuinely makes you happy.

Empower Your Future: When you make this agreement, you’re setting the stage for a future where you are in control. It’s a step towards living a life that reflects your values, dreams, and passions.

This exercise requires one type of drawing or painting tool (such as colored pencils, watercolors, gesso, or pastel chalks) and paper that matches your chosen art supply. Use whatever you have or prefer.

You can use digital drawing apps or programs if you don’t have any art materials or you like to make digital art.

Take a moment for yourself, do the exercise "Permission postcard", and start living the life you truly want. Your journey to freedom begins with this simple, yet profound exercise.

To get started, simply download the guide, follow the instructions and set yourself free.
