50+ community Check-in March 29-April 1, 2021

Hi everyone in the 50+ community. I am sending you beams of love and care

It’s very easy to fall into the trap of judging ourselves and others. We notice bad things but not so easily the good ones, so today let’s try an exercise to open our hearts even more than they are.

Every day of this week write down at least one good thing you notice or noticed about a person to whom you either have neutral or challenging feelings. Then write down one good thing you noticed about yourself.

This exercise can help to learn to focus more on the positive than the negative.

How did you feel when you wrote down something nice about a person you find challenging? How did it feel reading it after a few hours, was there any change in your feelings?

Please come back here and let us know.
