So here’s what I did.
I wrote down 5 things I was grateful for each day.
On some days, I felt discouraged even before breakfast! So I would try to name simple things I could be grateful for. Nothing big. Just simple things like safe shelter, warm bed, fresh bread, clean water, music that lifts my soul.
Afternoons are a good time for short gratefulness exercises too. Interrupting your regular routine to do some gratitude journaling in the middle of the day encourages more mindful living.
At night, when the body is more relaxed, taking a moment to reflect and jot down a few things that you are grateful for is a great way to help you go to bed more peacefully and easily.
