Our snowblower stopped working today.
I chose to be thankful.
I'm not a gym membership-treadmill type of person. If I'm going to exert effort, I want to see something result from it.
In the summer, I do yardwork. Now it's January. I chose to be thankful for the opportunity to work and to have a visible result from my effort.
And I met my step goal!!!!
And then, Iko somehow came untied from the tree, and ran off to the neighbors. I was afraid for the lives of their free-range ducks. In panic, I chased her, and caught her knocking on their door, seeing if her friend Lily could play.
When we were safely home, I starting looking for things to stress eat. BUT, I used mindfulness, noticed what I was doing, and got my water bottle instead.
I think that it's the tiny decisions like this that will form habits and become a healthy lifestyle change.
