Imagine that you have unexpected free time ahead of you. What will you do first?

Select an answer:

I will start thinking about how to use it effectively – after all, time should not be wasted. I close my eyes and relax - finally, I don't have to do anything. I will come up with an activity that will make someone happy – let it have meaning. I feel a slight guilt for not working – but maybe I deserve it after all. I have no idea what to do – rest is not natural for me.

If you were a plant that someone regularly watered, what would happen to you?

Select an answer:

I would finally start to grow where it has long stagnated. I would feel spoiled – I don't know if I deserve it. It would surprise me - I am used to taking care of myself. I would blossom – attention energizes me. I would still wait for it to stop – things never last long.

Which of these ideas is the most pleasant for you?

Select an answer:

I sit in silence, listening to my breath. I am finishing something important and everyone will appreciate it. I lie in the shade of a tree and watch the clouds. I am walking with my loved ones, we are talking. I am sitting alone and in my head is a list of "what still needs to be done."

What do people think of you when you take a break?

Select an answer:

That I'm lazy – and I can't afford that. That I can listen to my needs. They might find it strange - they are used to seeing me always busy. I don't know – I focus too much on their expectations. That I deserve it – they know everything I do.

If you had to spend a day completely alone, without the internet and obligations, how would you feel?

Select an answer:

Amazing – finally peace. Restlessly – I don't know what to do with myself. Productive – I would finally get to the things I've been postponing. Guilty – that I could be useful. Uncertain – if no one needs me, who am I?

Choose a sentence that best reflects your relationship with relaxation:

Select an answer:

Rest is a reward - you need to earn it. Rest is a part of balance – without it, one cannot live. Rest is for others, I don't need it. Rest is weakness - you need to be strong. Rest helps me gain perspective and distance.

Imagine that someone invites you for a weekend getaway without your phone. What is your reaction?

Select an answer:

Great idea, I'm packing right away. It depends on what I would have to postpone because of that. It's not for me – I need to have things under control. It sounds beautiful, but I don't know if I can afford it. I dream of it, but reality does not allow me.

What feeling does the word "slow down" bring you?

Select an answer:

Relief – I long for it. Panic - what if I miss something? Uncertainty – I don't have experience in that. Resistance – it sounds like a loss of performance. Hope – that I will connect with myself again.

If you had to take care of yourself as a child, what would you wish for first?

Select an answer:

Safe space and plenty of hugs. A program that will push it forward. The freedom to do what one wants. Time just for yourself, nothing to do. Responsibility to learn resilience.

Imagine the sentence: "I deserve a break." What comes to your mind first?

Select an answer:

Consent and peace – I know that. Doubts - is it really so? Resistance – who dares to say that? Tears – it sounds like something I desire, but I don't allow myself to acknowledge it. Question - what else do I need to do to make it true?
