When my daughter assists me with chores, she gets to enjoy extra screen time, and I get a helping hand. It’s a win-win situation! Recently, we binge-watched an episode from a beloved show featuring an annual “Indulge Yourself!” day, where the main characters, Sam and Lily, dedicate an entire day to pampering themselves.
“Indulging yourself” may sound simple, but it actually requires some finesse. As Sam prepares for their day of indulgence, Lily suggests they invite their colleague, Max, along for the ride. “He really needs a break,” she notes. “He’s like a stretched-out rubber band ready to snap.” It’s true: when we go too long without treating ourselves, we can become irritable and worn out.
However, Sam quickly interjects, “Max won’t be able to keep up with our pace!” While Sam and Lily may splurge on flashy items, the essence of their “Indulge Yourself” day goes beyond material goods. It’s about friendship, shared experiences, and creating cherished traditions. I suspect that, at the end of the day, they would agree that the time spent together holds more value than the extravagant purchases.
I envision organizing an “Indulge Yourself” day filled with wholesome treats and enjoyable activities! This concept ties into the Strategy of Treats, a valuable approach in the realm of habit formation. By allowing ourselves small indulgences, we can motivate ourselves to pursue healthier habits. For instance, after a fun outing with friends, I find it easier to stick to my fitness routine.
When we feel deprived of treats, we often resort to justifying unhealthy choices with phrases like “I deserve this” or “I need this.” However, with regular healthy indulgences, these rationalizations lose their power. My latest book explores the delightful Strategy of Treats, as well as the amusing art of loophole-spotting in habit formation. For those interested in understanding how to create and break habits effectively, this book offers some valuable insights.
