📝 8 Thoughtful Prompts to Use Weekly

🕰️ How to Use These Prompts
-
Choose one prompt per week and schedule 10–20 minutes together.
-
Write then share: each take 5–10 minutes writing your thoughts, then read and reflect together.
-
Keep it simple: skip a week if needed—consistency, not perfection, matters more.
