What can fill your cup right now? What can you do to put a smile on your face?
What can you think about? Watch? Remember? Plan? Eat? Listen to?
Who can you call? Visit?
Where is your happy place? If you can’t visit physically, go on Google, find it on maps, and choose street view. And visit virtually.
Go on YouTube, search for, and watch your favorite movie scene. Listen to your favorite song.
Make/buy your favorite sandwich. Have a fun smoothie. Have a cup of…
Meditate for 17 seconds… Listen to water sounds or birds chirping… (you can find both on YouTube if not right outside).
At work? Sneak to the bathroom and play your favorite game on your phone for 5 minutes. (I used to do this at a soul-sucking job. FYI turn the volume off. 🤣)
Set a timer. Take a nap. 😴 If you get caught, say, “Amen.” 😂 Then continue with your day. 🤣
We have to find small ways to bring more joy into our days.
I’m about to make myself a cup of matcha and enjoy half a sleeve of mini donuts I grabbed at the gas station yesterday WHILE I watch TWO of my favorite scenes from The Wiz. 🥰
What about you? How will you bring more joy into YOUR day?
Blessings!
