One of the really fun things about recording appreciations over for a long time is going back to revisit them. Today I came across an appreciation for our windowsill menagerie from 2017. It still makes me smile today!
The players have changed, but the game still remains!
If you want help getting into your own appreciation practice (oh, and want to meet some cool new people and have some fun!), join us for our Rewire Your Brain — Appreciation Practices for Challenging Times class on Tuesday, August 25th. It’s the last time I’ll be offering this class for awhile, so be sure to register if you’ve been meaning to check it out!
For me it is listening to the red squirrels chittering outside, watching monarchs dance around our baby oak tree, spotting an Eastern Tiger Swallowtails in our garden, and watching Sarah & Ida dance their way into the room. 💚
Due to popular demand, I am offering two more sessions of Rewire Your Brain: Appreciation Practices for Challenging Times. I’m adding several new tools and a little more time for these classes. Even if you’ve attended this class before, feel free to join us again. It’s gonna be fun!
