Appreciation and Gratitude

The Day’s End 10-27-17

This particular mediation was on appreciation, and something happened today that I was so appreciative of, I was just got the biggest grin..my mom sent me much needed money. Then I thought of a memory that I appreciated and that was living close to the beach when I was a teenager, I don’t now, but they were appreciative memories. What a great mediation to go to bed by. Good night all my Aura friends! Good night Aura!

Gratitude

It helps to take time to focus and appreciate the good things that happen throughout the day, many times they are very simple things but they can leave you feeling very happy. Expect and watch as good things happen throughout the day.

Omnibus

Taken away given a name a fake name told a lie took a liar dated my own reflection hear my inflection

Cultivating Positivity

Noticing positive moments and embracing them cultivates a positive mind which produces positive words and actions.

I Appreciate...

I learned that it doesn’t have to be a big 'thing' in order for you to appreciate what someone did,or will do, for you. I appreciate having my father and sister in my life. I’m grateful for being able to laugh, cry, be upset, and play argue with my father and sister.

Appreciation

Giving thought and thankfulness for all the small gifts of appreciation we receive from others. Looking for and celebrating all that is positive in our lives no matter how small. Bringing mindfulness into our daily lives and to all that we interact with.

Happiness can be found everywhere

Happiness can be be found anywhere and in everything. Even the smallest gesture can produce happiness. 💛

So very appreciative

God bless you all. I mean that with each inch of my being. It keep saying my reflection is too short, but I had written 3 paragraphs, but I'll save it until Thanksgiving.

What do you feel grateful for...

We must take time to be grateful for all the amazing things in life. Life is a rat race and if we do not slow down and feel grateful for the world and life around us it will be gone before we know it.

Peace

I think positive. Instead of focusing on the one negative event to look at all the good moments

Grateful

We need to stop and savor the wonderful things that happen to us every day. That remembering those things can make us appreciate all that we have just that much more.

Appreciation

I really enjoyed thinking about pleasant things that have happened this week and I am grateful

appreciate

i'm so grateful for this life and everything and everyone around me. I should spend more time focusing on the present moment rather than rushing to the next 💛💛💓💓

Look more at the postives

I often tend to focus on the negatives, and from now on I will focus more on the positives

Positive outlook

It is so nice to think of what brings you joy in the morning. Sets out a good vibe to follow for the rest of the day! Hope everyone’s day is filled with joy today! ❤️

3 min appreciation and gratitude 🙏🏽

I learned better access to my joy, happy memories and ultimately the grateful feelings of love all around me all the time. I’ve always been a grateful and appreciative person, and I love this meditation, it helped me a lot, thank you 🙏🏽

🙂

Meditations focusing on appreciation always bring me joy in the heart. Thank you! 😊

Gratitude

That remembering those wonderful moments, makes me feel how I felt when they were happening.

Remembering Joy

I can summon positive memories throughout my day to feel better ^-^

There is hope

My niece and nephew give me hope and raise my spirits. I’m grateful for my family.

Look for the joy

I do not always take time to appreciate the joy in my life and I should do.

the small things

my memory was really lovely and important to me. i’m glad i took the time to go back through it. i hope today i can appreciate the small things.

Appreciation

I learned how even the smallest of gestures or moments can mean so much especially when their intentions come from a kind heart and a pure intention!

12/26/17 Appreciation

Today I was overwhelmed with lots of task to do but couldnt do it on time. I was panicking but thanks to this meditation i was able to appreciate and breathe the stress away. Now I can finally do some work done and try to forgive myself.

Appreciating the little things

Appreciation is important and I want to take more time to recognize the things that go right in my life and memorialize them.

Appreciate the nice things

Big or small things such as someone opening the door for me....just appreciate all!

Appreciation

Slow down and reveal in the positive feelings when something nice or good happens to you instead of rushing into the next moment.

Day 4 of 365

This meditation was difficult for me because, for some reason, I couldn’t think of any recent event that brought a smile to my face immediately or felt really good. That’s not to say those things shouldn’t have happened, between Christmas and New Years and a myriad of other events, but nothing recently really stood out like maybe it should’ve. Why?

Little things

I learned that sometimes it’s the little things that can make a difference to how good your day is and reflecting on those good little things can show you how lucky you are and that your day was better than it may have seemed.

We dismiss the “small” things too easily

When called to focus on something I was grateful for, I found myself focusing on something I didn’t even realise I felt gratitude for!

Getting enough sleep

Sleep is essential, and I need to start taking seriously the plan for getting at least 7 hours a night. Sleep is joy. Sleep is life!

I learned that

I need to appreciate the small things in life and be grateful

Appreciation

Appreciate the smallest of things like a smile, a laugh, even thinking about love makes me realise it is the littlest appreciations that have a huge impact in my positivity. Gratitude is a great gift I need to take more time to reflect on smallest treasures

Appreciation

I don’t often think of the little things that affect my day and make it better. A good cup of coffee, talking to a sister who lives in another state, a neighbors dog who likes to come in our house to visit. I need to be more mindful that those little things add up and make me happy. ❤️🙏

Appreciation

I have a lot to be grateful for, and a lot of beautiful moments that happen every day. Taking time to acknowledge them is important

3-Minute Appreciation and gratitude

When you have loved ones around us that support the things we do, we should be very grateful for that. It’s the little things in life that we need to appreciate. When people don’t realize what they have, they become greedy and take things for granted, while there are other people out there that are blessed for as much as having something small. This isn’t just an appreciation and gratitude meditation, it’s also an awareness meditation of how people should act with kindness and spreading the love by giving.

Destiny

I guide my destiny. I will lead it with good karma. I will manifest a beautiful future.

Appreciation and Gratitude

I learnt that dwelling on a happy experience really did make my body feel lighter. Also that it is easy for one pleasant memory to follow another. I am thinking lately that quiet joy is our natural state, but it becomes obscured by worries and concerns.

Appreciation and gratitude

I learnt that holding a happy moment in my mind does make my body feel lighter. Also that one happy Memory leads to another.

Gratitude

I’m glad to remember what is important to me and the little things don’t matter.

Small gratitudes

I tend to forget about the small things that happen throughout the day. It’s nice to take a moment and remember them to bring happiness.

Appreciation and Gratitude

It’s good to feel grateful for the times in my past where I felt really good. I’m in no way entitled to those feel-good times, it could have gone another way, so I appreciate the turn of events, the people who made it possible, and the opportunity to experience the really good feeling. Namaste

What a great day

This meditation is so quick and easy. It is a beautiful way to start off the day. It can even be used anytime one is feeling cranky! I loved it. Quick, easy, and practical

no focus

I was studying and noticed that my kind kept wandering away... so now I know, when that happens I should just take a break and meditate to get back my focus.

Gratitude

I usually don’t think about my recent happy moments. It’s time to be grateful for everything; the past is yesterday too. Not only last year or 10 years ago.

Remember

We have to appreciate and remember the things in life that make us happy.

What makes me happy

Being appreciated and in turn valuing others. I always want people to like me, but I have to make an effort for the relationship to be mutual.

Appreciation

I'll go through my busy Sunday today remembering to have an open appreciation for the good things which happen to me and appreciation for the people in my life!

Learning to bring in positivity

The meditation helps bring up positivity regardless of the morning mood. I could feel the energy of positivity when I was listening to this as it helps me bring upon events that helps brightens my day.

Gratitude

I learned that it’s good as well as essential to focus on the small things in life that bring a smile to your face. It’s the small things that make us who we are.

Practice Gratitude

I am encouraged to routinely practice taking time to appreciate the pleasant things in my life and bathe in those moments more. I tend to gloss over the good things and focus a lot of my energy on things that go wrong, or areas where I feel lacking. I’m feeling motivated to appreciate all the positive things and expend more energy in that space.

❤️

I am lucky and I am loved. Perspective is important. My family is special.

Session 1

I need to focus on the good that happens to me. If I choose to focus on positive experiences in life it will help me in my overall wellness.

Happy

I learned that remembering nice things that have happened to me makes me smile automatically and makes me happy.

Be grateful

It’s nice to remember the good things in your life so you can appreciate all the obstacles to come.

Happyyy

Gong to sleep happy is nice and thinking of beautiful things is just sooooo relaxing wow

Day one

I learned that I’m not happy and I’m focusing on the wrong things. I need to be in the moment and appreciate the small things

Take a moment

Taking a moment to appreciate the good makes everything better

Day by day

Deal with the now - worrying will not change anything - positivity planning and courage !!!!!!

3-5

I need to more frequently notice the small things for which I should be thankful and appreciative. Noticing those small things will give me more opportunities to express my appreciation.

We can appreciate more

I love how this one focused on how we can appreciate more of what we do. We sometimes down play the good things that happen in life. But we sometimes need to stop and just be grateful for something good.

See

I need to visualise clearly a nice event to help bring the associated feeling

Positivity

I tend to focus too much on the negative things that happen in my life and allow that negative energy to drag me down. From now on I’m going to focus on the positive aspects of life, even the smallest things.

Positive

I learn to focus on those good things that has happened to me and not on negativity. To really enjoy the moments and reflect on them.

That was amazing!

I learned that just by thinking of amazing things that happen in your life can help you have a much better day.

This made me smile

Being grateful, smiling about positive things in my Iife. But so short!

Gratitude

I realized that we need to be more grateful for those small little things that are truly kind and nice

Remembered

It was good to take time to remember the good things that have happened recently that I had almost forgotten Praise God from whom all blessing flow.

Good

I have to be positive for a good day and not every then will go your way

Appreciation

I realized that it’s ok to focus on the positive things that happened to me, and not over think

Space

I learned that needing space is okay and receiving positive vibes is great

Yay

I now understand that taking deep breaths and being patient can really impact positively

Appreciation

When I accomplish a goal, or achieve an accomplish, I need to take time and recognize them more and not just move on to the next thing. It’s okay to enjoy your successes in life.

I love light and people more than I though

Being with friends and Sean makes me really happy Warm weather makes me really happy

See Good

I learned that people should see the good in people, stop judging before knowing their story.

Friends

I learned that being in a company of good friends even just for a few hours can really help boost your mood and stop the troubling thoughts from entering your mind. For a few hours you can just relax and laugh and afterwards you can look back and appreciate their existence in your life.

Nice

Had to keep bringing my mind back, but whenever I did it was very gentle and sweet to feel present.

Gratitude

Pausing during the day to take in the nice moments with real gratitude seems like a wonderful way to be more mindful and spread kindness to others.

Weekend Gratitude

I had a really positive, great weekend and taking a few minutes this morning to reflect and remember the events is the perfect way to start the work week!

Breathing seems to calm me down in mind and body. Going by to the gym today to help my body get bck

Breathing seems to calm me down in mind and body. Going by to the gym today to help my body get back

Appreciation

I noticed that i havent had a utterly happy “moment” in my life recently. Not sure how to take that. I’d like to believe that i enjoy every moment as much as i could. I know there have been more stressful moments, but I’ve tried focusing on the positive instead.

Friends....

Tried this session with friends but they ended up laughing. It did sorta of help me but I’m not sure if it helped them😂

Little things

Sometimes i tend to ignore the nice things people do for me because I’m so caught up on all of the things that are wrong in my life. Perhaps if i take the time to appreciate the small kind gestures I’ll realize that life isn’t as bad as i make it out to be.

Appreciation and Gratitude

All too often, I focus on the negative things happening within my body....the pain and discomfort can be sooo distracting. It was nice to focus on appreciating even the simplest things and being grateful for them.

Gratitude

In doing this mediation this morning, I just realized that I haven’t noticed any nice thing that has happened to me recently or few months back. But I am indeed grateful for live. I want to unclog every negative vibes and focus on the positive vibes and good thing the universe has brought my way. Every single moment, time, day etc. thank you Aura 🙏

Gratitude and appreciation

I believe that I’m really starting to pay attention to the daily occurrences that I should be grateful for and am expressing that. Need to more, but it’s a good start.

Happy

Ahh today was a milestone. Happy thoughts feel my mind tonight. Happiness interferes with sleepiness.

Blessed

Gratitude for my fabulous wife and 3 incredible sons. I am so blessed and know: that which I hold in my mind today will manifest outwardly.

Remember the little things

I learned that it's okay to slow down and just take time to feel/celebrate the little moments that are good in your life instead of just rushing around and being stressed all the time.

Happy

Found out my lil pup is sick today so have just been feeling incredibly down. Thinking about how she wasn’t well cared for in her previous home just upset me. But I realized that I should be happy she’s with me because she brings me happiness & she finally has a good home. I should be happy that I am financially stable enough to take care of anything she might need. & just appreciate that she is now receiving treatment.

Interrupted

Early am telephone selling call spoiled my session I was unable to get back to my e and space I must unwind.....

Think Nice Thoughts

I need to practice gratitude even for the small things that I appreciate, gratitude counteracts anxious and negative feelings.

It gets easier

At first it was hard for me to locate a pleasant memory, but it got easier each time.

Amazing

This helped now I appreciate the tings I have that I didn’t appreciate before and now I can remember to count the big and small things in life

Appreciate

Good intention for today. As I move through my long list of to-do’s today, I’ll pause for a moment or two after each activity of the day and, before I move onto the next, really appreciate the positives from it. Namaste

Appreciation and gratitude

This was a good reminder of what I learned from Rick Hanson about spending more time on the good things that happen. We are so often consumed with what’s wrong that we give very little time to the good stuff. Thus week I have been consumed with the plight of the children and families separated by my very own government. Thankfully, I have also spent much time being thankful for the people at MSNBC who have kept us informed and the kind people who are helping.

Appreciation and Gratitude

I learned to really appreciate all the good things that happen to me and that I am so lucky to be living how I am.

Smiling...

Could not help smiling at all the “Lucky Breaks” that seem to happen to me on a regular basis! I feel truly blessed and am grateful for so many things and it did make me feel lighter as she suggested! Maybe I need to pay attention & stay focused on them more often and not let the little irritations get my attention! Once again re-learning “Where Focus Goes, Energy Flows” if I let some little thing start to bug me, it seems to grow into a problem. But when I count my blessings, the list keeps getting longer... hmmm... which would I rather have?! ❤️☮️🍀

Reminder

Its always nice to take a second to remind yourself of all the good things that are manifesting in your life. I couldnt help but smile during this practice.

good memories

i loved this ! i made me feel light and unpreoccupied about my worries and problems. it’s great remembering things and memories that make us feel good about ourselves and just enjoy life and the good things that happen to us :)

Simple appreciation

I haven’t felt a joy like this in a while, or at least I haven’t taken the time to stop and notice what simple pleasures bring me a moment of joy and a smile to my face.

Blessed not stressed

When I started to count my blessings, I realized that no matter the size, large or small, each blessing is a gift of immeasurable quality. Stopping to take the time to fully appreciate my blessings also relieves stressors that have no real business taking up residence within me! This makes me smile and feel grateful and somewhat lighter. Stressors are unnecessary burdens I do not wish to carry for any period of time.

Savor

I really like the word “savor” when it comes to the wonderful experiences that happen to us.

Gratitude is Everything

Being reminded of your blessings makes everything else so much easier to deal with.

Day 4

It’s important to appreciate when good things happen but it was hard for me to think of something, I must make a mental note when something nice happens to me no matter how small

Appreciation

I love these kind of meditations. As soon as I’m in this state and bring up a memory of something good, I feel the instant lightness. It’s beautiful!

Gratitude

It’s always a pleasant experience to be grateful for the nice things people do for us especially when those good deeds are unexpected

Broke down into tears

Good tears! It was like seeing a movie of your life flash by your eyes. When she mentioned an animal, I started crying about my cat that recently died. Glad to have experienced a mix of emotions in seven minutes, it’s good to let go and let your body feel.

Reflection

It’s great to just sit and think about the things we are grateful for. Today is my second day of gratitude, so today I’m grateful for the new opportunities and blessings that are coming my way. I feel that by being grateful ahead of time for the things not yet here, that they’ll soon be, quickly and swiftly. I AM GRATEFUL!

Appreciation and Gratitude

I noticed how important the little things that make you happy really are. I need to learn to cherish these moments more.

Beach

I thought about my lovely day at the beach. The warm sun and and cool soft breeze as i leisurely walked along the pier. That is my happy place

Make sure you listen to this.

This helped me with whatever I had struggled with before. I truly think this has helped me & can help you too.

Patience is the way

I have to slow down and appreciate what I have and what I have been able to accomplish as a person and appreciate what I have and appreciate who I have instead of being my own negative magnet

Patience is the way

I have to slow down and appreciate what I have and what I have been able to accomplish as a person and appreciate what I have and appreciate who I have instead of being my own negative magnet

Appreciation and Graduate

I learned how to hold on and let go at the same time.. I felt true freedom

Learning to love the moments

I need to appreciate the little moments and enjoy the small things that are good

Peace

You need to chill out things sometimes, don't hold it back. Just sit down and relax

Calm

I realized theres so many things to look for and be grateful for. And when I recognize them I should embrace the feelings of happiness and joy

Thankful for this moment

I feel so thankful for this life I have. For my family, my home, my pets. As I sit outside right now I feel at peace with the life all around me.

Remembering why im here

Today I have been feeling extremely stressed with a project, but this meditation helped me to appreciate my role in the project and helped me remember that my team is appreciative of my hard work and efforts.

Always find the good

I should really write down all the good things that happen during the day. Or even things that made my chest feel light. This was a great session!

Something I don’t do enough

Appreciate if all the little things that are good throughout the day and week is something I don’t do enough of. It was never a reflex that was taught to me, nor was it one I used, so taking the time to think back is something that I should do more often.

Appreciation & Gratitude

I learned how important it is to savor the great memories and moments that happen to me and really tune into those emotions and appreciate them. Focusing on all the good and how lucky and blessed I truly am! When we focus on all the good it’s hard for us to be negative! I loved this meditation session! Such a great daily reminder for me to remain being my positive happy self 😌❤️

Gratitude and Appreciation

I have come to realize the power of gratitude and appreciation. The more I take moments, such as this meditation to be aware of my appreciation and/or gratitude in my life, the deeper my joy becomes and the more at peace I am. When I pause for moments of gratitude, the times of distress don’t become all consuming and overwhelming. I choose gratitude. 🙏

Little Things Mean A Lot

Good intention for the day, to appreciate the nice things that come my way, to me and to others around me, and try to add to the kindness. Namaste

50/50

Pausing to bask in the purity of a pleasant moment is a rare treat that we inexplicably tend to deprive ourselves of in the chaos of our daily lives. I need to do this more. Unfortunately, couldn't fully appreciate the moment. I'm anxious about the world and my body feels weighted, tense. This helps quell it a bit.

Appreciation

I noticed that I only was able to list a few things. Hopefully that will grow.

Happy

today i became a little closer to god and that was one of my appreciations. i am glad he has blessed me with all the great things that i have.

Appreciation and Gratitude

Sometimes, to make my day a little bit better, I should look back on something good that happened to me recently, and try to look for the same type of good in my current situation.

Appreciation and Grattitude

The importance to feel and be present. To notice when something nice is happening to you, to stop and appreciate that. Learn to appreciate the small stuff, take a breath, appreciate and let go. Just saying something to myself like “j’suis ben en tabarnack” as an example, will help me appreciate the present moment.

Grateful

We should be more grateful with all those things we have. There is soo many people suffering because they have no one and nothing helping them. We are never never alone. God is always with us. But still we should just learn to be more happy and nicer to people even if we don’t like or can’t stand them.

tingly

I learned that in just 3 minutes I am reminded of a full yoga session. the shavasana pose where I'm relaxed and the teacher talks us through unwinding. it has a positive impact on me.

Relaxing Christmas

I get to stay home & relax & have christmas with everyone here I got lots of spa stuff & a journal & colouring gel pens & I am on my Christmas break & relaxing & de stress myself it a wonderful feeling

Relaxing

I learned that meditation will help cope with my problems. This is really helping with my anxiety.

Small moments count

This made me realized how small moments are precious. How people are there for you, and despite the hardships, there is also the good times. No matter how small, cherish it.

Moments

I loved the reminder of stopping to appreciate the nice things that happen to you every day. What a beautiful thought!

Appreciate

I learned to focus on the present and appreciate things aa they happen.

No negative thoughts

This really helped me appreciate little things in the day and made me forget the bad things in the day. I tend to hang on to the bad things and I need to spend more time bringing more thought into the good things that happen!

:)

i woke up sad again but this session made me feel lighter and actually put a smile on my face.

sadness

i was going to bed sad so I decided to do a little meditation and realized there are good things in life, we just have to find them.

I felt

I could've made the decision myself I feel I would've maybe felt better with a different recommendation?

That’s nice...

I thought of how bright and beautiful green the asparagus and snap peas blanched up for my dinner last night- so many things to appreciate right before each of my senses. Namaste

Wow

The week before spring break and I have a lot going on around me. Idk how I’m planning to get through them but I pray god guides me down the right path.

Flame of gratitude

This meditation really light up a flame of gratitude inside of me, I started to remember many simple, but beautiful moments which happened in past few days, all nice people that I'm surrounded by and who were included in these lovely memories that I'm thankful for.. 🙏💙

Appreciation

I learned how to appreciate different things and people, stay a lot more calm and thankful.

Learning...

I've been meditating for about a month now and it really has helped me live in a more peaceful, stress free way. I feel more awake and aware; mindful. With this quick 3 minute meditation, I love how she told us to name our passing thoughts and then let them go. Great way to acknowledge what it is and simply move it along. Thank you.

positive reinforcement

I learned that you can look back on special moments and savour them. and let them be a reminder that good things happen

Appreciation and Gratitude

This type of meditation keeps appearing around me. I see that I am supposed to hold and appreciate the little thinga in my heart. It is the little things that bring happiness.

Gratitude

The memory for me was my brother buying new headlights for me, he gifted them to me. That was a nice and thoughtful thing of him. It does make me grateful and appreciative of him.

sweet living

Memories of pleasant activities keep our hearts happy and young. Remembering is living again. 💕

Appreciation and Gratirude

What a wonderful reminder to focus on the positive things and be grateful for them. As we look and search for the positive, our mind begins to see only positives.

To value the little things because as they say, those are the big things in life...

Great reminder

This was a great reminder for me that was needed. There are so many good things in my life and I need to focus more on that.

Lovely Meditation

So simple: to think of something good that happened and smile while thinking of it. Simple, but rarely done without prompting. I am grateful for this meditation.

I liked this one a lot. Very simple but important, reflecting on the little, nice things.

To shift what you focus on, highlighting the good things that happen throughout your day and appreciating them fully

Stop Assuming the Bad

I have a bad habit of only thinking about what could go wrong in a situation. Very rarely do I think about what could right. And even when I do, I always feel like the bad outcome is more likely to happen than the good outcome. I like the idea of focusing on the good that’s happened to you & being thankful for it.

Emotion

This meditation made joy spring from my heart more than I thought it would. Focus on the good that comes in small packages :)

reliving positive moments

Being able to experience a nice moment again in my mind was very life-giving for me. It's so easy for me to re-live negative moments and emotions over and over again. But I don't know that I've ever relived positive moments and emotions in this way before.

Savor the Good

We often brush over the positive in our lives and instead focus on the negative. In this excellent meditation, Jiva has us focus on what is positive in our lives by thinking of memories we have had that made us feel light and warmth in our hearts, someone or a pet that we have gratitude for and a circumstance we have that we feel appreciative for. I began getting lost in my breath as my mind bounced around savoring good memories that I treasured. A smile naturally came to my face and my heart began to warm. Then, my mom and our pets entered my mind. My heart began to fill with light as I thought how truly grateful I am for my mom and our pets. Gosh, how much they enrich my life with their presence! I then focused on the home I live in, the bed I have to lay in to sleep at night, the food I have to eat and and the shower I have to cleanse myself. Focusing on these circumstances I have in my life reminds me that indeed, I have everything I need! Focusing on the positive in our lives not only improves our mindset, but it also attracts positivity into our lives! I am grateful for Jiva creating this wonderful meditation for us to not only savor the good that has happened in our lives, but to bring our awareness to and savor what Is good in our lives Right Now! Today, go ahead and make a memory that you can savor later! Namaste 🙏🏻☮️❤️

Feeling good

It’s certainly easy to dwell on the bad times. It’s amazing we have be reminded to recall and enjoy how we felt during the good times. Our minds are such a mystery. Namaste

Little Things

I am stressed right now with several issues. This brought me joy and tears of appreciation. Thank you. Gene

Think positive

Stop and smell the roses. Life can be so busy, stop and enjoy. Life is too short to miss out because of being so busy!

Gratitude

I learned that all negative experiences don’t have to be problems

Gratitude

I felt warm in the inside of my body. I felt that nothing could stop me and that I am happy in my life.

It is so nice to focus on the good in the world!

I have lots of small things that can help make the stressful items feel better.

Appreciation

Jiva, always enchanting! Appreciate a movie with my son, a walking meditation, and a Henry James story!

Appreciation

During difficult times, all we try to do is to find someone or something to blame. Nobody really stands up and smells the roses anymore. We all need to learn this concept.

Great reminder

This meditation helped me highlight the happy points of the last week or two. It made me see, that even when things are a little chaotic, it is essential to take a moment to reflect on what is beautiful, what is positive, and what brings me joy.

Grateful

This meditation let me realized to be thankful and grateful for all the happy moments I’ve been able to have and that not everything is so bad as it looks like.

Memories = future gratitudes

Sometimes breathing is enough to ease our worries. To focus on one thing. Bringing ourselves back to our breath. We forget how it gives us life. Memories, great ones, remind us of positivity. Reminiscing makes us smile. The more vivid they are, it is like we are time traveling. No need for a time machine. Memories are future gratitudes. As we look back at them.. we appreciate those times. They remind us that time does exist.

Appreciation

Remember what good moments you’ve had in the last week or so, and realize you’re lucky to have those. They’re special.

I felt great after

I learned that if I remember a good memory then everything is great

Gratitude

From this meditation, it really got me thinking about the good things in life and how sometimes they may be forgotten or taken for granted. We should all learn to be appreciative of these times as they are rare and beautiful.

Gratitude and Appreciation

In today’s lesson I learned that being around loved ones always seems to cheer me up whenever I’m feeling down or not having the best day. I’m always like the shoe them gratitude and appreciation for all the things they do to make me feel better. Being around loved ones is always the best medicine

Sweet and Simple

I feel light, fulfilled, and grateful. This meditation does exactly what it aims to do, nothing more, nothing less.

Just what I needed

I felt light, grateful, and happier by the end. I noticed the negative/worrying thoughts go away as I focused on the great things in my life. A great pick me up!

Grateful morning

It was lovely to think of friends, an experience and a pleasurable bike ride with a mate. To be grateful for my yesterday which is being grateful for my community and the events of my days. I am going to manifest a brilliant day today with this gratitude and positive energy that I was able to pull from my abundant yesterday. Thank you for the reminder. Blessed.

Bathe In Pleasure

We can bathe in pleasure by remembering pleasant things that have happened to us. I thought of my cat and a lush green area with a lot of plants. I want to enjoy all my pleasant encounters and appreciate them more versus rushing them out and away like we often do. I want to live in the moment and appreciate things as they happen. We don’t have to follow any of our negative, undesired thoughts.

Memories of Gratitude

I really enjoyed remembering a few of the happy memories I have had recently. It really proves to myself that I am very lucky to have such a wonderful life where I can be safe, healthy and happy.

Appreciation and gratitude

This meditation put a great smile on my face as I focused on positive and happy events from the past couple weeks, from loving kind connections with cherished people in my life to the amazing oak tree in my front yard. As I began pulling these moments forward with awareness and gratitude, more and more moments tumbled forward, big and small, rolling through my mind, bringing me more and more joy. Like attracts like. The negativity bias is real. Our brains are wired to generally put more emphasis on negative events, even when those events have an equal or less intense emotional experience than positive or neutral events. Our brains naturally focus on the negative, but we have the power to change that! We can take charge, we can re-train and re-wire our brains by doing exactly what this meditation encourages us to do! It all starts with baby steps. It all starts with one choice at a time in the present moment. It all starts with asking yourself what you can do in this moment to create your best future self? It’s not easy, the best things rarely are. It does get easier and easier. Like attracts like. You’ve got this. We’ve got this. I’ve got this. Thank you.

Wow! This is a great meditation

I can’t really do my coffee meditation (I’m having a blood test this morning, and so I need to not be consuming anything from 12 last night); but this is a Groovy thing to meditate to! May you have a Groovy day!

Focus on the positive

I learned that I have so much to be grateful for. There are more positive than negative things and circumstances in my life, but I focus on the negative. I have to make a switch to rather focus on the positive.

Relaxed and ready

I now feel relaxed and ready to face the day.💜 Thank you! I favorite this particular session.

Smiling

Noticing one small thing that made me smile recently and feeling it again was nice. It brought back the same warmth I felt when it happened.

Peace

Appreciate the small things in life around you, show gratitude whenever you can

Really relaxed me.

I was feeling low and crying a lot throughout the day with struggling with GAD. This nearly took my anxiety away and made me feel very relaxed!

Love

A reminder to reflect on the good in your life instead of all the negative. Be appreciative for it all!

Appreciation and Gratitude

When you take a brief three minutes to reflect on even the smallest of good things, or a few of those blessings, suddenly your whole day is transformed. It can be comforting after a hard day at work or school, and inspiring first thing in the morning.

Following thought is optional

A revelation- ‘you don’t HAVE to follow your thoughts’. A good intention for the day. Namaste

Vibez

Sharing is caring. Everyone needs someone. Helping others can make the world a better place

Today

Nice to think back to two events that occurred this week that made me smile. Practicing gratitude has proven beneficial to me.

Similar happy places

It’s amazing how my body parts easily transformed from being stressed to relaxed when I visualized faces and events that made me happy and thankful. I even smiled. This is how to start a morning. Being mindful and discerning. It takes a few minutes to convert one’s mindset.

My meds are too high

I need to rest and talk to my case manager I need to take a shower today

Thoughts

… you don’t have to follow them. Good reminder from my younger days of doing TM.

Gratitude

It was hard st first but then I learned that I was grateful for a magnificent sky the other morning, a moment of love with a grandchild and my darling dog.

I felt bliss

I felt bliss when I observed gratitude and in my memory. I learned that my heart has a lot of love to give!

I learned that I can squeeze in a decent length meditation session while awaiting Nicholas to finish up lax practice.
