GRATITUDE JAR<\/h2><\/div>
Habit for happiness<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]Practicing gratitude, searching for things that you are grateful for will lift your spirits and get your thoughts, focus on the things that are working in your life<\/strong><\/span>. Focusing on positive things is more than invigorating, it is a self-given gift. And it doesn\u2019t have to be complicated. It is best to do it in the evenings, but no pressure, if you do it in the morning it\u2019s fine too.<\/span>
\nInclude it as your convenience and bring some regularity into it, like do it each Saturday morning meanwhile coffee time. Start recalling yesterday or the very day you have overcome. Then look back on the duties you have been accomplished, your encounters you have come across, the sudden inputs you have gathered, etc. Give yourself 5-10 minutes to sit with your upcoming memories and emotions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of opening a journal and trying to fulfill a page with all the things you\u2019re grateful for, try focusing on one or two that really invokes the emotion of gratitude<\/strong><\/span>. Write down each on a post-it, the ones that stand out for you, and fold it in half then put it into your Gratitude Jar!<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking gratitude notes can be uplifting in those smooth phases of our lives and also when it\u2019s used in difficult situations or downright irritating relationships. Ask yourself, despite all the bad, what can you learn from a difficult day or week? What qualities do you admire in yourself or someone else\u2013 even if you don\u2019t want to be around them right now? What are you grateful for? Write each onto a post-it. If you start including this exercise from June, you might end up with a full jar by December. Imagine how fun it will be to open those notes up on New Year\u2019s Eve and reading all of them.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2965″ img_size=”full”][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1634926327650{margin-bottom: -20px !important;background-color: #f4f4f4 !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_zigzag color=”custom” el_border_width=”10″ custom_color=”#d3d3d3″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1634926158260{background-color: #f4f4f4 !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1673449354580{margin-top: 20px !important;}”]If you have embarked on changing one of your habits or you need support on coping with emotional hardship then sign up for online counseling.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_btn title=”Enroll now” style=”outline-custom” outline_custom_color=”#1d5b00″ outline_custom_hover_background=”#666666″ outline_custom_hover_text=”#ffffff” size=”lg” align=”center” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-user-check” button_block=”true” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fildikopap.com%2Fen%2Fonline-counseling%2F|title:Contact” css=”.vc_custom_1634971520244{margin-top: 15px !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1634926335314{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #f4f4f4 !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_zigzag color=”custom” el_border_width=”10″ custom_color=”#d3d3d3″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row wrap_container=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1673986124057{margin-top: 40px !important;padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” animation_type=”fadeInRight”][vc_column]
