Favorite Things : Daily Gratitude Journal
As a busy mom juggling the chaos of family, work, and life, I have tried and failed multiple times over the years at starting a gratitude practice. Journaling was too time-consuming for me. Meditation is amazing, but I have trouble being consistent, and trying to find a time when our house is quiet enough can be a challenge. So of course, The Five Minute Journal caught my attention right away - I have five minutes! And now it’s become one of my favorite daily self-care rituals.
Every morning and night, I take a moment to reflect on the things that I’m thankful for. Whether it's my son's infectious laughter, the warmth of a cozy fire, the ability to catch up with a friend, or sometimes, just coffee! These moments of gratitude set the tone for a fantastic day and help me unwind at night.
