"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more” – The Divine
As Thankgiving approaches, l thought I would make a list of all things I am grateful for today and everyday:
💛Accountability. I'm so glad I've finally realized that I'm accountable for myself and my life.
💛Acceptance. I'm so thankful to those who accept me for who I am.
💛Art. To quote Ani Difranco, "Art is why I get up in the morning."
💛Books. There's never a time when I'm not thankful for the words of another.
💛Choice. I love that every day I can choose to be happy. Fabulous!
💛Color. As you can probably tell from my site, I'm obsessed with it!
💛Change. It is scary, but I have learnt that it can be a wonderful thing.
💛Comfort. Comfort food, comfy sweatpants, a comfortable relationship...comfort rocks!
💛Challenges. They may suck at the time, but they always make me a better person.
💛Compliments. Yeah, you know you're thankful for 'em too.
💛Encouragement. So many people have supported me in my life and I'm so lucky to have them.
💛Friends. There is no way I could survive without them. Love you guys!
💛Family. My true foundation!
💛Food. It's a major part of life, but I often forget to be thankful for it.
💛Generosity. One of those things that's just as great to give as it is to get.
💛Glitter. C'mon now, you know glitter is just about the awesome thing ever.
💛Hope. Sometimes it's hard to find, but it's always there, waiting to lift me up.
💛Health. I'm a pretty healthy girl and I'm so, so, SO happy about that.
💛Handwriting. It's so cool how we're all so different and this is a great place to see that.
💛Holidays. There's something incredibly exciting about them (especially Halloween!!!!).
💛Imagination: I don't know where (or who!) I would be without it...
💛Laughter. There is little better in the world than the laugh-so-hard-you-cry feeling.
💛Life. How cool is that I'm actually here, in this world, living?
💛Love. It's completely magical and amazing, isn't it?
💛Magic. Just read a quote saying magic is in everything. So true!
💛Rainbows. I saw a 180 degree today in !!!
💛Sunshine. I don't see too much of it today, but I love, love, love when the sun's shining.
💛Seasons. Spring, summer, winter, fall -- love 'em all!
💛Stars. I love how they blanket us at night
💛Smiles. I love giving them and getting them.

💛Words. They are literally my lifeline. I would not be me without them.
💛Good News. We all know there's a lot of bad news out there, so it's great to hear the good stuff.
I feel I could keep writing.
What are you feeling grateful today?

💛Positive affirmations are very powerful because they release you from negativity, fear, worry, and anxiety.
💛When these affirmations are repeated over and over again, they begin to take charge of your thoughts, slowly changing your pattern of thinking and ultimately changing your life.
💛You may choose to use positive affirmations to motivate yourself, encourage positive changes in your life, or boost your self-esteem. If you frequently find yourself getting caught up in negative self-talk, positive affirmations can be used to combat these often subconscious patterns and replace them with more adaptive narratives.
💛Lets start our day today, by chosing to repeat these four affirmations:
I AM LOVED
I AM HAPPY
I AM HEALTHY
I AM WEALTHY

💛It's almost time to say goodbye to summer and welcome back the sorely-missed Pumpkin Spice Lattes, blanket scarves, and fall foliage.
💛If you take a moment to realize, mother nature, lets us enjoy and experience every phase and change she undergoes throughout the year. And while you may prefer one season over the others, you can likely find good things about each of them.
💛Falling in love with fall all over again? Join the club🍁

💛 Welcome Autumn 💛
"Come, little leaves, " said the wind one day,
"Come o'er the meadows with me and play;
Put on your dresses of red and gold,
For summer is gone and the days grow cold."
Soon as the leaves heard the wind's loud call,
Down they came fluttering, one and all;
Over the brown fields they danced and flew,
Singing the glad little songs they knew.
💛 Come, Little Leaves
💛 By George Cooper

💛Self care:
Here are some self care – self soothing activities to try and calm down emotions of anxiety and make it more manageable.
🟡Coloring:
Colouring books have increased in popularity for their ability to reduce anxiety and stress. The repetitive and engaging nature of colouring encourages relaxation and calm, detaching us from negative thoughts.
🟡Breathing:
Breathing is the number one and most effective technique for reducing annoyance and anxiety quickly. Closing your eyes and taking deep breaths is a great way to calm down your pounding heart and earth yourself at the same time.
🟡Cuddling:
Playing with a pet is an exceptionally effective self-soothing activity. Animals have an ability to easily re-direct our messy thoughts.
🟡Airing :
Heating will be switched on soon enough as fall weather sets in. Humid room can be a catalyst in increasing your anxiety while airy and cool outside air can assist to regulate your breathing. I find my anxious thoughts, melt away as I go out for a quick walk or spend some time in my backyard especially if its chilly

🟡Bathing:
Soaking yourself in warm water can help to regulate your breathing and relieve symptoms of anxiety.
🟡Lighting a Candle:
Scented candles, essential oils, incense, wax melts, perfumes and even smelling some fresh flowers can help lower your anxious mind. There are so many choices to experiment and see what works best for you. My personal favourite is lavender essential oil.
🟡Positive Affirmations
Positive affirmations are short, positive statements (such as “I am stronger than this emotion”) that assist to re-align your negative mindset.By reiterating positive affirmations, you can redirect your feelings to a positive place.
💛Next time you feel anxious, try doing some of these self-soothing activities for anxiety. If you would further like to challenge your anxiety, please feel free to download my self-help Wellness Workbook: bit.ly/MyWellnessWorkbook

💛Do you have big goals and dreams in your life, but feelings of anxiety and overthinking sometimes get in the way?
💛Is the current world situation having a considerable toll on you and your family?
💛Do these feelings of anxiety leave you powerless and stuck in cycles of negative thinking?
💛If your answer is yes, you are not alone. I too have struggled with the same.
💛The racing negative thoughts, the endless worries, the overthinking, it is challenging.
💛However, through training my mindset to think positively along with consistent practice, I've learned to manage my anxiety. And now I want to help you do the same!

💛I have created this FREE Wellness Workbook for you, with my favorite mindset tips, strategies, and affirmations. Just like me, I know you have goals to achieve in your life and anxiety should not an impediment to achieving those goals.

💛It takes so little to brighten someone else’s day.
💛Yet it can leave them feeling happy for a moment, an hour, a day, or give them a sweet memory for life.
💛And it makes you feel pretty awesome, too.
💛Here are some ideas for being your own little rainbow:
🟡Send a note to a sick friend
🟡Buy a cupcake for a sad friend
🟡Ring the supervisor of the salesperson who gave you great service
🟡Notice something someone did for you and thank them for it
🟡Ask that friend who was uncharacteristically quiet if everything is ok
🟡Tell someone you care about that you think they’re swell
🟡Smile at the people in your office, gym, or other regular haunt
🟡Offer to help a stressed or struggling friend (in a way that feels comfortable, not a way that makes you stressed)
🟡Forgive or stop holding a grudge against someone who hurt you.
💡What other ideas do you have?

💛Self Care Routine - III . 💛There is nothing like curling yourself with a good book near the fireplace and a mug in your hand. I just love snuggling in my bed, a book in my hand, drifting my mind to a different world. Books are filled with imagination, creativity, and you just learn a lot. . 💛Whether it’s a self-reflection book, a romance novel, horror or mystery. I love forgetting about everything and getting sucked into a world I’m not familiar with filling my thoughts with imagination. . 💛Read & Relax . 💛 Try to read or spend as much time in natural sunlight. This helps everything from enhancing mood to improving productivity and sleep. If the weather isn’t sunny, consider a UV light box . . 💛 To wind down here are a few techniques . 1: Aromatherapy: It can help reduce anxiety by changing brain waves.
