I’d like to start a grateful mission. Why?? Because it feels good. 🤗 When we are kind to ourselves and to others WE feel good, WE become generally happier people, WE expand and grow our love web. Who would like to join me? ⠀ ⠀ Let’s start feeling the side effects of being grateful and showing/sharing love. This is a practice, not a one time and done deal or a cure but I do believe we can tip the scale back to having more “feel good” moments. If we never change what we’re doing, nothing will ever change. So why not try? 🤷🏼♀️⠀ ⠀ I’m not saying everyone should be happy, feel good all the time but I am saying instead of dwelling over and over about how crappy life is, let’s learn some tools and make some small daily changes to help us tip the scale. ⠀ ⠀ This will look different for each person. For some it’ll mean having a few random moments of happiness in their day and if that’s all we achieve then that’s a successful start. We can’t expect all sadness, anxiety or stress to suddenly disappear— in fact, we don’t want them to go away. Those are what really LIVING is all about, FEELING ALL the emotions we are presented with at any given time. ⠀ ⠀ Here’s what I’m going to do.. two simple additions to my daily routine. ⠀ 1) Each day write down 3 things I am grateful for. Might be about my previous day or just about life in general. Example:: snuggles with my kids or simply the sun came out. ⠀ 2) Perform one random act of kindness each day. Example:: giving a homeless person food or simply a text to my mom reminding her I love her. ⠀ ⠀ There is no obligation to anyone who wants to join me on this. In fact, no big deal if you do just one day then never again or random days throughout the month. I plan to try to do every day. Absolutely NO JUDGMENT either way. I just think it’d be kind of cool to do it with some of you amazing humans. Plus extra bonus if it helps those of you struggling find some peace within your own chaos. ⠀ ⠀ Comment below if you think you might try this with me. 👇🏼👇🏼 Together let’s watch our world transform into what we always knew it could be. ⠀ #gratefulmission #iamalive #areyoualive #kindnessmatters #yourloveweb #happinessisapractice (at Edmonton, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3zukqPgJFR/?igshid=uwfvbd52o3au
