The “Feel-Good” Jar! 🥰
Hey hey everyone! Hope you're all having a lovely week! 💛
Been having a low day and was looking for some positive quotes/ images etc online and that’s when I found a mention about having a “feel-good” jar, even just reflecting on a couple of things to add to mine made me feel a little better so I’d like to share this fun and uplifting activity with you too! 🥰
🌞 “The Feel-Good” Jar!🌞
Imagine you have this magical jar, not for fireflies or spare change hehe, but for all those tiny joys and reminders that make your heart happy and bring you some peace of mind!
What would you fill it with?
I'm thinking of things like a little handwritten note with a silly inside joke, a smooth pebble from a favourite beach walk, a dried flower petal from a bouquet that meant something special, or maybe even a tiny drawing of a comforting pet etc!
You can also include any positive experiences or moments you’ve had, any lasting memories that bring you comfort or joy~ could be related to both on and off cups! I’m sure many of us here have plenty of wholesome experiences being a part of this wonderful community. 💛
It's about those small, tangible things or intangible moments and experiences that can instantly bring a smile to your face on a cloudy day. What's one thing that would definitely go into your feel-good jar today? 🥰
Ooh and maybe all of us can contribute in making this thread a biiiiiig feel-good jar for the entire community, for a little “lift me up” for anyone who needs it, whenever?!
Can't wait to hear your ideas! Share anything that comes to your mind, no matter how small or “not-significant” it may seem, if it brought you even a tiny bit of joy~ it counts!🥰
Joy shared is joy multiplied, I feel. Tag your peers here who could use a little reminder to feel-better also! 💛
Ps: I don’t currently have that bandwidth to make one for myself but it would be such a cool idea to have a jar like this “physically” as well. 👀 In case anyone makes it, feel welcome to share pictures or ideas with us! 🥰
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou I love the idea of a big "feel good" jar for the 7 Cups community, 🌞! How shall we do it?
One thing going in my "feel good" jar today is... cuddles with my kitty cat! 🐈💚
@YourCaringConfidant
Awww cuddles with kitty sound super cozy and wholesome! 🥹🥰
Oh and good question Desiree, brain not braining that much xD but I’m thinking of this entire thread to be that one big jar for the entire community, where everyone can include what uplifts them hehe~ we’ve to basically utilise our power of imagination and consider this thread “jar-shaped” while adding our “feel-good” notes in it lol! 🥹
Lemme know if you or anyone else seeing this has any other ideas too? 💖
Found another awesome “feel-good” experience to add to the jar! This inspiring and wholesome reflection from @mmslife showing just how rewarding unwavering resilience and a positive-mindset can be! 🥰
Also the reminder to continue holding tight, because, eventually things can get better!

I love this idea. I was having a really bad day today and crying. I saw this and I think it is a great idea. I would put in the jar is petting my huskies, exchanging texts with my children, talking to a friend, and a nap always makes me feel better. I am sure I can think of more when I'm not so exhausted.
@Mishka1599
Aw *offers hugs* how are you feeling now? 💛 It’s okay to let it out by crying, just a reminder that you’re hooman and you’re allowed to have all sorts of days. 🌻
Naps for the win and I love these awesome ideas hehe, all so lovable and cute-sy! 🥰

hi this kinda like our blessing jar that we write things in that are blessings to us like when we able to see the sunset and all the colors that within it
when we have a day that our breathing not bother us that we feel like we doing better that meds working
quotes we seen also things others have said to us that up lifted us
small things many not even think about even take for grant like having food and shelter when we think of even the tiny blessings we each have that will help us feel good
so love the idea of a feel good jar too
one thing we really has helped us a lot is just being listened to and truly heard we had that a lot on 7 cups
Hey hey @stormieandpaws I appreciate your response soooo much, there’s so much to be grateful for and I love how you’ve added the tiny moments of joy and blessings here too! 🥰
The idea of a blessing jar is incredible, I hope y’all have lot of things to keep filling it with. And may y’all have better and calmer days ahead. 💛
Feel free to share more if you like here.
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
It is an owlsome and inspiring idea, Sunshine! 🌞💖o(^▽^)o💗
The feel-good jar is something we can always look at and boost our mood! ღ(｡╹▿╹｡ღ)💗
This reminds me of a birthday jar I made for a friend years ago. I printed words on a smol papers, each paper has the words that describe her ٩(๑•◡-๑)۶💖
What's one thing that would definitely go into your feel-good jar today? 🥰
My feel-good jar today was eating deep-fried crackers! 😋💗
PS. The letters color is peach 🍑 because the color of the smol folded papers inside the jar is peach 🍑 (●'◡'●)💗
There are Sunshine 🌞💖 emojis because to feel good means to have Sunshine 🌞💖, just like in the song, “I've got Sunshine 🌞💖 on a cloudy ⛅ day” 🎵
The hearts 💛 in typing is also yellow because it is the color of Sunshine 🌞💖 and the color of the sparkles of the papers in the jar ヾ(๑╹ヮ╹๑)ﾉ”༘˚⋆𐙚｡⋆𖦹.✧˚💖
@VictoriaLove7

The yellow duck 🐥 gif image is cute, Sunshine! 🌞💖ヘ(ˊᵕˋ ヘ)💗
The duck has this face (◍◕⌓◕◍)
Me is the one who is super blessed to have *you* in my life o(^▽^)o💗
The raw crackers have been seasoned when we bought them, and all we need to do is just to deep fry them (๑><๑)
Below are some picture of them
