Week #3

Okay Okay, I haven't been the greatest at documenting my weekly goals. Why, you ask? Frankly, I don't know. But, I do have to say that I have been good at keeping my weekly goals (with the exception of a sugar cookie or two last sunday).

So here is habit change #3: Be Grateful.

I want to have a healthy body, but I also want to be mentally and spiritually healthy. I want the whole package. Showing gratitude not only helps us recognize all the good we have in life, but it can help heal depression and lead to better physical and psychological well being. Studies have proven that giving gratitude may also reduce your risk of certain types of psychopathy. I'll take it.

Whenever I write in my journal I try and write three things I am grateful for that day. Sadly, I haven't been writing very often. So, I am starting a gratitude journal. I will document the happenings in my life by writing about only what I am grateful for each day. EACH DAY, not once a month. I also have purchased several sets of adorable thank you cards and want to write at least one a week.

So, to kick things off, here are a few things I am grateful for tonight:
*My husband. I could not have asked for a better, more caring person.
*Amazing friends and family. How did I get so lucky?
*My health
*My testimony of Jesus Christ
*Clean sheets
*Yoga
* My job
