Boost your energy habits with the three key strategies: give, receive, enhance.
We balance our energy with giving and receiving; we expand our energy when we focus on enhancing it.
Like the ocean - it ebbs and flows, and occasionally needs an influx of fresh water to help it replenish.
As we go through each one, mark a tick where you are going well, and an x where you would like to improve.
