022 - How Gratitude Can Change Your Whole Day & Your Life

Hiya & Welcome Back, How Gratitude Can Change Your Whole Day I’m going to start off this post by saying I have mixed feelings about this time of the year. “The Holiday Season” Before my mom passed it was always great because she made it great. She was so over the top with every holiday. She just made it so fun. I tried to continue this after she was gone but It seemed I was the only one who wanted to do this. Except for my kids, I think they just love it. It was really hard for me to do this by myself as a single parent. But I carried over many of her traditions and added some of my own. After the past two years, there was this weird feeling that I had and my kids also. It all felt so materialistic and unauthentic.  So, my question that I am still working on is how can I make my holiday and my kids holiday special again all while having it feel aligned with our beliefs and our families values. So we kinda don’t celebrate. At least there are no expectations. We always get together and have fun.  This is one thing that is important to all of us.  Not the gifts or the traveling all over the place on these set days. Just all of us being together. One of the things that always helps me appreciate this time of the year more is having gratitude for everything I have in my life right now. Being grateful for my health, my home, my friends, and most of all my kids and my puppies. This always reminds me of how lucky I am and how I need nothing. I have everything right in front of me. One of my favorite ways to practice gratitude is in the morning writing down a few things I’m grateful for and then I write all the reasons why. Nothing is too big or too small. Then at night, I think about something that happened during the day that I’m grateful for and why. This way I’m beginning my day in gratitude and ending my day in gratitude.
