Daily Mindfulness Check-In December 21, 2022

The challenges in life many people face on a daily basis can be difficult and the thought that everything is just hard can come up. I believe this is because we're caught up in finding solutions and trying the best we can. I'm not saying it's always easy but I try to remind myself that there are good things as well. My morning gratitude meditation helps me with this but I also do other things like taking some time out of the day and just sit somewhere quietly and have a cup of herbal tea and watch the sky, the animals and smell the fresh air. It gives me a wonderful feeling of peace and calm.

@amiablePeace77 What was the most pleasant sensation you felt today?
@soulsings I am so glad to hear this.
@amiablePeace77
Hi Ami thank you for this. hmmm so far idk if it was the many cups of coffee I had or the baked goods going to my tummy. But really I am in a good place in my life.❤️
@RumpleSteeleSkin I am really glad to hear this.
@amiablePeace77 thank you for this post. I just finished my mock chat to become a VL and also completed filling in the application for the internship. The completion of these tasks has given me relief and a sense of accomplishment. I'm hopeful to be accepted, however the application process in it's self was fulfilling. The positive sensation I'm experiencing from this is invigorating. I'm off to get my run in now, definitely fuelled by this accomplishment 🤗

Waking up this morning and being able to sleep at night time. It's not much fun to sleep during the day with so many distractions going on around you. Getting to experience actually sleeping at night when most people do was such a serene, calming, relaxing, and thoroughly enjoyable as well as a most productive sleep I've had in a long time. I hope to experience it again soon.
@xandia
I can only imagine how hard it must be not getting healthy sleep on a regular basis and hope very much that this will change and you will sleep much better in future. Is there anything you could eventually change to have less distractions when you have to sleep during the day like wearing noise defenders?
@amiablePeace77
It's probably when i ate this really delicious cookie. Actually it might have been 2 but they were really good haha. I also had some peach tea with it. It was pretty nice just chilling eating sweats and drinking tea. Maybe I should do this more often.
@amiablePeace77
completing my tree dedication to everyone here.
I posted a few links to short video clips of it in my thread My daily ramblings , page nine I believe, if anyone is interested in seeing it.
@Iamwhoiamwhoami
Can you give a link to your thread?
I made Christmas cookies this afternoon I found it quite calming and enjoyable trying to get myself into the holiday spirit 🍪❤🍪❤
@Leanna3333
Oh yes, baking Christmas cookies and maybe also listening to some Christmas music whilst kneeding the dough can definitively put you in good spirits. Merry Christmas 🌲
Awww thank you. It was very nice holiday low key and quiet one this year
I did have music on my laptop 😁
The warm air from the heater.
@resourcefulMirage2502
When it's cold outside it just feels so good to switch the heater on and warm up the room to feel comfortable.
Yuuuus.
