Daily Gratitude: I find this a valuable reminder especially in this time of upheaval in our country (and probably in the world but my short sightedness leads me to think only about the stuff that directly affects me. I should work on that). We take so much for granted here when we should be looking around for things to be grateful for (it doesn’t really take much looking). The feelings and vibrations created by feeling and expressing gratitude are so much better than any other. Why that isn’t our default position instead of being negative? Because It’s how we’ve survived all these eons. Our primal brain is focused primarily on picking up what it perceives as danger (which makes it look for things that are negative). I am making more of an effort to find gratitude all around me and I’m also trying to not have it he an effort. That should be the goal. Try setting the timer on your phone for an interval of your choosing (an hour or every four hours etc) and have it go off to remind you to take 10-30 seconds at least to look around and specify the things you’re grateful for. Are you willing to change your “taking it for granted” attitude to “wow I’m really grateful for…”?
