Personal Gratitude List

What are you grateful for in your life right now? Here’s an example list.

Breathing in……and out….saying thank you inside as I exhale. In……and out…..thank you.

Thank you for it all, the warmth and shelter, the comfy bed, the loving dog, the son, the sister, the mother, the uncle, the brother, the greater circle of friends and family. The trees and flowers, the birds, the river and waterfalls. The grass, the smells and sounds. The food from all over the world, the cups of tea and glasses of orange juice. The freedom and ability to go for a walk every day.

Thank you for all that is working. The light that appears at the touch of a switch. The cooker that heats the food. The fridge that cools and the washing machine that makes clothes clean. The lock that secures the door. The taps giving instant clean water and all involved in making that happen. The body that keeps working well every day.

And thank you when they are seemingly not working or not going well. Thank you for the challenges which help me deepen my awareness and commitment to letting go. The stray scary thoughts that give me a chance to practice recognising and uncoupling myself from them. The sore back that gets me to be kind to myself and rest. The slow driver in front that teaches me . Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.
