Start This Year With Gratitude!

Hey girlies! Let's start this year strong with ✨ gratitude ✨

Let's learn a bit about it together, shall we? 🫶🏻

Gratitude practice involves intentionally cultivating a sense of appreciation for the positive aspects of life.

Research in positive psychology has consistently shown that regular gratitude practice is linked to increased well-being, improved mood, and overall life satisfaction! With that being said, let's try to slowly incorporate a bit more gratitude to our daily lives 🫶🏻

Here are a few ways you can do it:-

1. Gratitude Journal

Take a few minutes each day to write down things you are grateful for. They can be big or small, ranging from meaningful relationships to simple pleasures like a beautiful sunset.

2. Express Gratitude

Don't keep your gratitude to yourself. Express it to others. Tell friends, family, or colleagues that you appreciate them and why. It can be a simple note, text, or face-to-face expression.

3. Mindful Gratitude

During your daily routine, take a moment to be mindful of the things you usually take for granted. This could be your health, the food you eat, or the environment around you.

4. Gratitude Meditation

Incorporate gratitude into your meditation practice. Focus on the things you are thankful for and let that positive energy permeate your thoughts.

5. Gratitude Jar

Create a gratitude jar. Write down moments of gratitude on small notes and put them in the jar. Over time, you'll have a tangible reminder of the positive aspects of your life. I did this back in 2015 and till this day I have that little jar filled with memories. I don't know why I stopped doing this haha, time to start again!

Cultivating gratitude doesn't mean ignoring challenges or difficulties but rather shifting the focus to acknowledge and appreciate the positive elements and over time, this practice can contribute to a more positive outlook and increased resilience in life :)

Hope you girls find today's sharing interesting :)
