The Night Time Self-Checkin Routine

What goes through your mind before you drift off to sleep? On better days, I like to think of the positive experiences I had throughout my day. But some days hold memories I’d rather avoid. Dwelling on these isn’t the best way to unwind before bed.

But these days can teach us a lot.

I find it helpful to do a quick check in on myself.

Here are some self- check in questions that might be useful to ask before your sleep:

  1. Did I trust that today will be a better day?
  2. Did I fail to express my feelings?
  3. Is there anything today that I should forgive myself before I go to sleep?
  4. Were there any moments where I felt I wasn’t being true to myself?
  5. Did I feel any regrets?
  6. Did I give my best today?
  7. What did I do better today than yesterday?
  8. What was I passionate about?
  9. Did I complain, bicker?
  10. How did I show my openness towards others?
  11. Did I show love and gratitude to anyone today or the opposite?
  12. What can I be proud of today?

So, what did today teach you?
