Spring/Summer Rest & Relaxation

Gratitude Exercise
Gratitude Exercise
Being grateful shifts the lens from what is lacking or not ideal to what is already present and good. We often tend to take for granted everything that’s positive in our lives and instead dwell on what we perceive is wrong, what we don’t have, or what we don’t like. Research shows us that practicing gratitude regularly can have a lot of benefits.

On Friday reflect on your week...
On Friday reflect on your week...
Write down or think of the answers to the questions asked in the "Friday 5-4-3-2-1" Activity.
Learning often happens not just by doing, but from thinking about what we do. Often we go through our day to day life without spending too much time “processing” our experiences.
I am challenging you to take some time to reflect on your week:
What made you smile?
How would you describe the week?
What are some things you learned?
What are things that made you laugh?
Now, after you have hopefully had some time to relax and rejuvinate this week, set 1 goal for next week.
