131. Finding a practice that works for you.
There are so many different practices that will help you reclaim your patterns of focus and engage with positive emotions, such as:
-Meditation (my favourite)
-Gratitude Journalling
-Letters of appreciation
-Intentional acts of kindness…
And the best one is whichever one works for you.
Once you’ve decided what sort of positive practice you would like to integrate into your life, the next step is deciding how frequently you are going to commit to that practice.
Here are some examples:
You could meditate for 10 minutes every day…
Or you could meditate for 1 hour once a week.
(Both options would likely benefit you to the same degree).
You could write down 3 things you’re grateful for every other night…
Or you could write down 15 things you are grateful for once per week.
You could commit to doing one random act of kindness every day…
Or, you could decide to do as many kind acts as possible on Thursdays only.
Each day, you could send a different person a quick message about how you love and appreciate them…
Or you could wait for their birthday and write them a thoughtful, meaningful letter detailing everything you love and appreciate about them.
It doesn’t really matter what sort of practice you engage with, or how frequently you follow through.
As long as you’re motivated to follow through on a consistent basis (however often that may be), you will begin to develop your ability to shift your patterns of focus and engage with positive emotions.
