Give Yourself Permission

Here is a nifty little creative project that I think would make a great addition to any morning routine. I found it in the book Living Out Loud, and it looks pretty easy. The premise is to live your life on purpose daily. Here’s what she has to say about it: “Permission Cards take the frenzy out of your hectic existence and give you permission to do what you REALLY want.”

The book has a tear out page with lots of little “permission slips,” but I thought it would be really fun to make our own. You can use 3 x 5 cards and cut them into quarters, thirds, or whatever shape you like. On one side write  an activity that appeals to you.

Here is a list of the permission slips from the book. Feel free to make up a bunch more of your own:

Meditate  *  Nap  *  Heal  *  Vent  *  Forgive  *  Play  *  Change *  Try  *  Recharge  *  Inspire  *  Begin  *  Embrace *  Simplify  *  Create  *  Receive  *  Trust *  Dream  *  Invent  *  Smile  *  Wish *  Bloom  *  Grow  *  Love  *  Transform *  Dance  *  Choose  *  Express  *  Empower *  Contribute  *  Investigate  *  Let Go  *  Accept  *  Laugh

You don’t have to stick to one word permissions. Here are some other ideas:

Hurry slowly  *  Make mistakes  *  Go back to bed  *  Be outrageous
Make a mess * Whine and Complain * Say what I think * Play all day

Leave them plain and simple, or decorate each one with markers or stickers. If you enjoy creative projects, you can go all out with these, but if you just want something and utilitarian, it doesn’t have to be fancy at all.

Directions:

  1. Make the cards
  2. Place the cards in a bowl
  3. Close your eyes and pick one. (The one that you need will stick to your fingers.)
  4. Say out loud, “I now have permission to _____________.”

Easy peasy… be a fun way to start the day, don’t you think?

  • Love this. Will work on it this weekend when i get home. Thinking poster board or old gretting cards or pictures from magazines on one side the permission on the other.

  • Love this idea ❤️❤️ It might even make a cool Xmas gift if done up in a cute way with instructions!
