I’ve been trying to meditate a bit more to help me get off to sleep (spending so much time at home means I’m not feeling tired at bedtime – anyone else experiencing this?)
One of the things that often pop up in meditation is being grateful for what we have. To be honest, I can sometimes struggle with being grateful, and often get bogged down in the negative.
So, with everything that’s happening right now I thought it might be a good idea to go through what I’m grateful for to encourage a bit more positive thinking.
I’m grateful that:
– I have more time at home to spend with family
– I’ve picked up some old hobbies, like watercolouring, and hope to continue them post-lockdown
– I’m cooking new and wonderful things, and gaining more confidence in the kitchen
– I’m still trying to exercise when I can, even those it’s tempting to skip it!
What are you grateful for?
Yes I am also experiencing a disturbed sleep schedule! I’m finding it hard to get to sleep of a night time and find that I am sleeping in later as I am not working at the moment so I don’t need to be up by a certain time.
I’m also with you with often getting bogged down in the negative.
I’m grateful that:
-I am living in a positive environment with my friends and we are still able to make our own fun on the weekends
-I live close to the beach that I am able to go on walks along
-I am able to get in home workouts
