Reflecting on the Positive


It's so easy to get caught up in what went wrong or what's missing from our lives that we often overlook the positive things, the things that bring us joy, the things that bring us happiness and wellbeing.

All it takes is a moment. Make the decision to set aside some time every day to reflect back on the good things. Reflecting back on things brings those feelings back to life. It doesn't have to be anything big, sometimes it's the little things that bring us the most happiness (the sound of a child's laughter, hearing a favorite song, talking to a friend).

Make it a practice to answer these questions at the end of each day:

-What am I grateful for?
-What did I enjoy today?
-Where do I feel satisfied?

Don't judge yourself if you can't think of anything at first, like everything else it gets easier with practice.

Have a joyful day!
