The Gratitude Habit: The Route To Better Wellbeing

The Gratitude Habit: The Route To Better Wellbeing

The gratitude habit: the route to better wellbeing. Photo by simona pilolla 2 Actress Doris Day once said, ‘Gratitude is riches. Complaint is poverty.’ There’s plenty to complain about in the society we live in today. From the weather and traffic to the seemingly constant negativity in the news, complaint has become almost a normal way of life. Especially during the 2020 lockdown, for many of us…

10 Things

I saw ‘10 Things I Love About Me’ on psych2go and thought it was a great idea. We so often put ourselves down. All that negativity just feeds on itself. So why not tell the things we love about ourselves? Bring in some positivity to combat all that negative! In no particular order:

1. I love the color of my eyes. No big reason. I just do. 2. I love my tattoos. I don’t have a huge number. But they all are important to me in some small or large way. 3. I love being able to write well. This little post might not prove it, but I am proud of the way I write. I’m proud of my stories and my poetry. I enjoy creating it so much. 4. I love that when I do something I generally try my best and usually that’s pretty good. Whether it be work or play I have some skills. Unless it’s sports. I have no sport skill whatsoever. 5. I love that I can make scones and such. Yummy. 6. I love that I’m loyal. Befriend me and I’ll be there for you no matter what. It takes a lot for me to back away from a friendship and I only do it if I feel I have a good reason, which is rare. 7. I love that I enjoy quiet time. I like and usually need some time to myself, to think, to journal, to tune the world out. It usually puts me in a happier place. It’s comfortable. 8. I love that I went to college and earned a degree. I may not be working in the field of my degree but I’m proud I achieved it. 9. I love that I’ve done things outside of my comfort zone. I hate heights; I crossed the Capilano Suspension Bridge (twice, technically). I’m a bit introverted; I worked as an activity director for close to eight years. Just two examples. 10. I love that I’m compassionate. I care about people and often I care deeply. When I worked in memory care I constantly took those folks home in my heart. I hated to lose them and during my time there so many people passed. I wanted them to all be well again but I knew to accept them for people, people who needed help in different ways, people who needed to feel needed. It had me so up and down and emotionally drained I eventually needed to move on. But I think of them constantly still.

So, there’s my ten. It was pretty hard to keep going after a few. It’s so easy for me to name things I dislike about myself. I wish it were the same for things I love about myself. That, as ever, is a work in progress.
