I guess keeping a priority of celebrating your wins! That has been a huge encouragement and also its created a sense of pride in my morning routine. I feel good about keeping promises to myself and it feels even better to look back and feel proud!!
I use any free time I have. Stuck in a line? Go inside, reflect. In traffic? Reflect. Waking up in the morning? Reflect.
I find that writing my reflection is more helpful than just thinking about it, but when I go to bed before I fall asleep I will reflect on my day
Right now, I am really inconsistent with this. I put it in my schedule and plan to do it. I’m hoping to improve my consistency.
No matter what the day holds ahead, with all jobs to do and calls to make have o schedule time every day to reflect and this will become a habit . Have to find a quiet place away from any distractions , preferably out of the house. Place phone away for a good hour around time of reflection.
You set a time to just sit down and think of all what you have to be grateful for, all the things you have done for yourself and others, what can you do more in the next coming days. No matter how small, all counts towards a positive approach!
I like to wake up in the morning and first thing meditate before anything else fills my mind space. It’s the easiest way to go deep into my unconscious thoughts and feelings. It sets me up for a good day by letting me know did I am balanced and any important issues have Bubble to the top
I sit down somewhere comfortable but is also a place for writing (e.g. at a favorite desk with a comfortable chair). I like to keep my space organized, but occupied to make it feel more comfortable and less tense; like, I’ll close up my sketchbooks and put my materials back in their respective containers, but I will still keep them on the desk (to the side) so I don’t feel pressured or not-at-home. This allows me to relax and truly think. And I can also flip through my sketchbooks to remind myself of my progress, what I’ve been working on.
I schedule 15 minutes for reflection on my phone. Adding it into my daily schedule gives me a break in my day to breathe, to walk or write or stretch while reviewing my day.
I set aside time each day to journal and write, in a spot where I can look back on it in the future. I do this right before bed. Before I sleep, I unload my thoughts while lying in bed and put them into my memories.
