Count your blessings. Make a
list of ten blessings. Write why
you’re grateful. Reread your list, and at the end of each blessing say thank you, thank you, thank you, and
feel as grateful for that blessing as you can.
I am truly blessed to have
the opportunity to buy plants,
because I want a few plants n
the house. I will be careful to get plants that are safe for parakeets. And not
too many. I’m talking about like 7 plants tops. I am excited!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am so happy and grateful
for enough health, youth, and energy and the opportunity to start this 21 day
eating and exercise plan and see what happens,
because I need a jolt. And I
am excited about the containers and the REAL foods because I never learned
these things growing up, and was too damaged in adulthood to do it, so I still “need”
someone else to show me. And that’s okay!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am truly grateful for the
qi gong I took with J. That was wonderful. Out in the park. Only the once, but
with a person we KNOW is authentic… And for the long-term tai chi
because although I took it
for granted at the time, those were VERY special days!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
With all my heart, thank you
for the breathing game with the kids, and more living in the moment,
because not constantly ruminating
over the past or panicking over the future is a BIG relief!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am truly blessed to have my
spirituality and the immediate visceral response to it,
Because, like, the other
morning, just THINKING about Reiki not even DOING it, my entire body responded.
IN the same way as when I mediate with mindfulness meditation too. Oh my gosh!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am so happy and grateful
for THIS summer coming.
Because I am DETERMINED to
not fall into depression like last summer. I have one day of work (paid) and 5
of a course for which I didn’t even know but I also get paid a little! And I
WILL meditate! I WILL! And take piano. And keep doing French! And swim! I MUST
swim at least once!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am truly grateful for just
creating a blog for my 21 day fix!,
because I want it separate from
here. (Although I will share address here of course. Just running late right
now and it takes me awhile with these things)
Thank you thank you thank
you!
With all my heart, thank you
for healthy and delicious breakfast I just ate,
because o f a million
reasons, but including that it wasn’t much different!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am so incredibly fortunate
and lucky and grateful for the OPPORTUNITIES today,
because I am about to get a
haircut and color! Lucky! And I can food shop! Lucky! And I can get a pedi IF I
choose! SO lucky!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
I am so incredibly fortunate
and lucky and grateful for my laptop!
Because it helps me live a
BETTER lfe as I am so facile with typing and love to record things on it!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
Thank you thank you thank
you!
2. Remember The magic by
counting the blessings of yesterday and writing them down. Ask yourself the
question: What are the good things that
happened yesterday? Scan the surface of yesterday until you feel satisfied
that you’ve remembered and written down all the blessings of the day.
