Mindfulness Daily Check-In January 16, 2018

Hello everyone
I hope everyone is doing well today. I thought today we focus on "gratitude". A lot of times we simply forget about the "good things" in our live because the "bad" is so overwhelming. AND THAT IS OK
We can always be mindful of new things that are healthy, and bring them into our daily lives.
Why do a gratitude journal-right? Well let me mention a few things we recieve doing this..
1. Less stress
2. Calmer
3. Gain a new perspective of what is important to you and what you truly appreciate in your life.
4. By noting what you are grateful for, you will gain clarity on what you want to have more of in your life, and what you can cut from you life
There are so many things you gain from doing just 1 15 minute entry in your gratitude jurnal.
So today, what are some things you are grateful for? Nothing is ever to small to be thankful for it

@RumpleSteeleSkin, wonderful post. Thanks!
Things I'm grateful for include (but not limited to):
1. Family...I couldn't have chosen a better group of people for my family!!! 
2. Friends...supportive and accepting
3. Home
4. Nature...it's calming, centering, grounding...it always makes me feel better
5. Music
6. Crafting...allows me to intuitively express what's within
7. A regular paycheck
8. Healthy food in the kitchen
9. My pets...unconditional love whenever I need some...and even when I don't 
10. Access to health care
I am thankful once again for 7cups and the great contributers who share their love and energy and thoughts.
I'll continue my gratitude list on paper, in my native language, as that is easier. Just a couple of short notes here: I am glad for healing, for more constructive habits, for supportive environment, for nature's beauty even on the darker/greyer/harsher days, for my body, for mindfulness of course, for therapists, for hope...
