#WEHIKETOHEAL CHALLENGE 2023 | WEEK 4

Section: Strengthening Affirmations Section Theme: Expansion

JOURNALING PROMPT:

As a powerful and capable human being, you have within you the potential for incredible expansion and growth. Take a moment to reflect on the ways in which you have already grown and expanded in your life and acknowledge the strength and resilience that has brought you to where you are today.
Now, envision yourself taking your growth and expansion to the next level. Journal about what new challenges and opportunities are waiting for you on the horizon? How can you empower yourself to reach new heights of success and fulfillment?

As you explore these questions, affirm to yourself that you have everything you need to thrive and succeed. Trust in your own intuition and wisdom and know that you can overcome any obstacle that comes your way. And with your own personal growth you are also creating space for other women to do the same. Your strength and drive are contagious – by sharing your journey with others, you are helping to create a world where all women thrive and succeed. So go forth with confidence and courage, and let your journey be a beacon of inspiration for women everywhere!

List 3 women that you are inspired by, and identify 1 common trait that you also embody. Finally, think about how you can model that trait to inspire the women in your community.

“Personal growth and expansion are not luxuries; they are necessities for fulfilling our potential and becoming the best version of ourselves.”

Outdoor Challenge

Week 4: Summit of Self

Description: The Summit of Self challenge is designed to inspire growth, expansion, and empowerment through a transformative outdoor experience.

Instructions:

Choose a local hiking trail or mountain that presents a moderate level of difficulty suitable for your fitness level. Research and prepare for the hike, ensuring you have the necessary gear, water, and snacks.
Prior to starting your hike, set an intention for expansion, or an area of personal growth that you wish to focus on during the challenge.
Begin your hike with a mindful mindset, being present in the moment and appreciating the natural beauty around you.
As you ascend, reflect on your intention and the areas of your life where you desire growth or inspiration. Consider the steps you can take to achieve your goals.
Whenever you encounter obstacles or difficulties on the trail, view them as metaphors for the challenges you face in life. Find creative solutions, push yourself beyond your comfort zone, and embrace the lessons they offer.
Upon reaching the summit or a designated point on the trail, take a moment to celebrate your achievement and reflect on the progress you have made during the hike.
Write down your insights and reflections in a journal or take a photo that symbolizes how you feel and what you’ve gained during your trek.
Descend the trail with a renewed sense of confidence and determination, carrying the lessons you’ve learned into your everyday life.
Share your experience on social media using the hashtag #SummitOfSelf and #WeHikeToHeal to inspire others and foster a supportive community.
Finally, challenge someone else to embark on the Summit of Self journey, encouraging them to embrace personal growth, expansion and inspiration in their own lives.

Remember to prioritize safety during your hike and follow all local guidelines and regulations.
