3 Simple Strategies To Live A Life Of Gratitude
A year ago we started a dinner-time game in our house, it’s called the “Gratitude Game.” Willow, my almost 5 year old, freaking loves it and begs to play each night.
It started one week when Dustin had been working late nights, it was raining non-stop, and I was feeling lonely and a little deflated. Willow was also feeling out of sorts. I was thinking to myself that it’s up to me to teach her about feelings (which I do) but also tools to get us out of a funk. So, I told Willow how I was feeling a little sad and I wanted to play a game to help me be in a better mood.
Empaths and Introverts- it's okay to ask for help too.
The thing about introverts is, we generally internalise our pain because we don’t want to be a “bother” on people. Always the empath, we listen to other people, and we are there for them- but when it comes to communicating how we are, or if we need help with anything (whether big or small) it takes a lot for us to speak out.
Konmari - The perfect time to do a purge in your house.
“I’m on a purge.
And it feels so good.
If I’m completely honest with you, this year has been hard. There have been a lot of trials, disappointment and frustration. Dustin and I have been craving for a change, hoping for a new season to start. We’ve been pretty exhausted, and over it- basically.
For the last few weeks I’ve been crying out…”What is it that we need to do to create change!?” It’s been feeling very stagnant. Stiff. In a rut- starting from the home (centre of our heart, hey?), and beginning to trickle into my business.
We’ve been wanting to feel refreshed and invigorated.
Excited. After countless hints from the universe, we decided to do Konmari. We did this a few years ago, and it was life transformative.
