Love this! I gave it a go - did struggle to get to 20 things though and most of the things that bring me joy I have not been doing recently. Made me think I really need to put myself first sometimes and focus on what brings joy. Thank you! X
Glad to hear this! I know what you mean though about getting to twenty. Tbh, one of mine was sleeping, lol. Hope you've managed to tick a few off your list since then?!
Tony Robbins! When I was going through separation/divorce around 16 years ago, a friend gave me a set of his CDs to work through. I was so sceptical but found them so useful! I’ve measured every “self help” thing I’ve come across since against them. There is an ability innate to some people which is to live in that moment of joy. I am reminded of the film version of Winnie the Pooh when they are having a party for him and he has cutlery in his hands, eyes closed, head ticking from side to side, beatific smile in his face, totally in the moment. I aspire to this!
Tony Robbins - I know! I always feel a bit embarrassed mentioning him but his approach really works. I often come to to those CDs you mention - they are now on Spotify!
I love this! Thank you for sharing. For me, it can be easy to forget the joyous times when in the depths of dark times. I love your idea of taking yourself out to lunch on your own. I also love doing this and it is something I need to do more often. You writing this brings me joy!
❤️ it can be hard! That’s why a practice. I’ve currently taken myself away to a yoga retreat for a week. Super joyous! Hope you do something nice for yourself today x
