In the midst of a pandemic, it would be easy for me to say I would love to embrace my family and friends again. However, I do think it’s time take a collective breath to say - Thank you for today. Yes, we are in living in very challenging times, we are having to be flexible to facilitate home schooling, working from home, or perhaps even dealing with the heartbreak of grief and loss. So, instead of wasting my time thinking about tomorrow, or what I will do when this current global pandemic is over, I am waking up each morning and seeing through the lens of love and hope. I’ve always believed my mindset is the foundation of my wellness. I see every day as an opportunity to cultivate ways of being kinder to myself, to others, to my community and even to live more mindfully and sustainably. We are part of an earth community and I believe a collective consciousness of gratitude and kindness is really needed right now. Don’t wait until tomorrow to appreciate every blessing you have today.
