5 things im grateful for today

  1. The international womens meeting. :girl:Its an AA meeting for women that runs 24/7 so i can hop on at any point of the day or night. Whenever im feeling down or lonely. Or even having cravings. I jump on sometimes for 5 minutes or sometimes over an hour. I mainly listen but an hoping in time ill have thw courage to share too.

  2. Early mornings. :sunrise:I love being up before the sun. I love watching it rise on a morning walk with my dog. I enjoy the stillness and peacfulness of being up before most people and the quietness of the house before my family is up.

  3. Prayer. :pray:I have some great prayer apps and love to start each morning with prayer and reflecting. I like to connect with my higher power to start the day in a positive state of mind and to feel grounded before I set out into the world which can lead me astray.

  4. The breath. :woman_in_lotus_position:I am thankful i can breathe but also that ive learnt to use my breath as a tool in hard life situations or when faced with difficult emotions. My breath is always with me and when i bring my attention back to my breath i can slow things down and gather my thoughts and compose myself.

  5. The gym. :muscle:Im thankful i joined the gym 2 weeks ago and am using exercise to face my fears with social anxiety. I am exercising to release positive hormones in my body that make me feel happier and more relaxed the rest of the day. I am watching my body and mind strengthen with each session and setting goals helps me feel productive and useful.

Thanks🥰

This was so well written and I can tell you really value not only just yourself and your own peace and skill set, but also the things in which you create. You really, really did a wonderful job structuring this. You are talented/gifted in SO many ways and communicating through text via structurally detailed outlines is a very great skill to have. Thank you for sharing!
