Good Helper Micro-Journey #1 (Awareness)
A 10-minute guided practice to help you notice over-helping patterns early—so you can protect your empathy before compassion fatigue builds (without shame).
If you’re someone who feels responsible for everyone’s feelings, says yes too quickly, or struggles to rest without guilt… this is for you.
This 1-page micro-journey introduces your Good Helper part with compassion and gives you a simple Body Compass practice to sense the difference between an aligned yes and a reflex yes—so you can pause, check capacity, and choose a kinder next step across Heart / Mind / Body / Soul.
What you’ll get
- A quick Body Compass check to sense yes/no in your nervous system
- A simple way to tell the difference between aligned helping vs. reflex helping
- Prompts to name what your Good Helper is protecting (conflict, rejection, disappointment, things falling apart)
- A mini “Good Helper Profile” (triggers, rules, costs)
- A tiny experiment you can practice today (pause, delay response, smaller yes, or hand-back)
