Spring has Sprung

Days are getting longer and warmer. Flowers are blooming. Birds are singing. There are new beginnings and rebirth in nature. It seems like a celebration in some way. Inviting the sun or saluting it like we do in yoga ;)

Spring is nature’s way of saying, “Let’s party!” ~Robin Williams

You may be finding this for yourself as well. Spring cleaning. Peeling off the layers of winter. Starting something new. If you’re feeling the urge to start gardening (literally or figuratively), why not start with planting some Gratitude?

What Are You Grateful For?

I'm sure I'm not the first to suggest that you make a list. Make one every day if possible. Let thank you become your mantra. Repeat it over and over throughout the day when you notice something to be grateful for or to remind yourself to notice.

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough. ~Meister Eckhart

Gratitude Garden

The sound of that brings to mind a very beautiful garden that would continue to inspire gratitude. Let’s start planting gratitude and see what comes up. The weeding comes in noticing the thoughts of lack or grasping and replacing them when possible. Simply noticing them and how they make you feel can be a way of making a shift. Plant gratitude anywhere and everywhere. There’s always something to be grateful for. Keep it simple at first and feel free to share. I keep a list in my phone and my journal. In short, today I'm grateful for time to write and relax. Thank you in advance for the beauty you will create (or already are creating).

In Gratitude,

Alissa
