Giving Gratitude to Yourself

Here is your reminder to go drink a big glass of water, take a deep breath of fresh air and remind yourself of how incredible you are!

It was on my heart today to share a brief reminder to us all to remember who we are and all of the great things (big and small) that we do on a daily basis.

We’ve been sharing some tips for gratitude this month over on our Facebook page, which I hope you are enjoying them! Gratitude for me is one of the most important things to come back to, especially when I find myself becoming disconnected!

If you have been feeling a bit disconnected lately, I wanted to share some prompts for you to check in with yourself this week:

Self Check-In Prompts:

  • How am I feeling today?
  • What can I celebrate today?
  • What can I do today that will bring me joy?
  • How can I make sure that I feel supported today?

Simple questions like these help me to ground back down and check in and help shift my day in a positive way – no matter how small the shift might be.

Give these prompts a try this week if you feel called to!

Now for a free gift for you!

Jaden’s Weekly Tip:

Shake Shake Shake To Peel Your Garlic!

Here is how to peel a whole head of garlic in a minute! Use your palm to press down the garlic bulb, separating the cloves from the base. Place the unpeeled cloves in a glass bowl with a lid or plate covering.

Shake the bowl vigorously and watch as the peels separate from the cloves! Within seconds you will have peeled garlic!

What is your favorite way to peel or use garlic? Let us know on our SK Facebook Page!

 
 
With that, I hope you have an incredible week and here is your reminder to call someone you love and spread gratitude this week!
 
With love,
