What are you thankful for?

Hey everyone :wave:

So we had a positive thinking chat yesterday, and we were discussing how remembering the things we are thankful for can have a positive impact our mental health.

Something that came from the chat was the idea to start a diary, and every day write something that you are thankful for from that day. This doesn't have to be anything big, it could also be something small.

I thought it would be cool to start a thread so we can share what we are thankful for. :heart:

Today I was thankful for the people I work with, I've not felt myself today and they cheered me up and kept me going throughout the day.

I look forward to reading all your replies.


Sharing is caring :heart:

    Today I'm thankful for having people who care about me and want to listen to me whine about silly things, it makes me feel loved. <3

    Great threat <3

    Today, I've been thankful for the warm! I love how cosy this time of year is and today although the weather was terrible it was so nice being in the warm :)

    As simple as this is, I think being cosy really makes you appreciate something as 'basic' (or what we perceive as basic) as this. It makes me feel so lucky to be indoors out of the cold in a safe environment :)
