Along with the cooler winds of November come the cozy feel-goods of gratefulness. And it’s even better with your fave hot java in-hand.
Yes, November is a month for feel-goods + introspection. For really seeing the blessings around you. It’s a time to show and immerse within gratefulness — no matter what may be swirling within your orbit. It’s when we pause, feel, breathe, and acknowledge the goodness that surrounds.
And if you don’t see goodness, look closer. It’s there, and in abundance. 😊🍁
November brings backyard bonfires. We enjoy stovetop ciders, butternut squash soup, pumpkin everything (PSLs anyone?), and the most beautifully decorated Thanksgiving tables. It’s a time for togetherness, for appreciating those in your world. It’s a time absorb thankfulness.
It’s time to intentionally focus on inner peace. On seeing blessings. And a time for creating moments worth remembering.
Holiday travels ensue for many. Families will reunite. And tables for many will be full. Share appreciation for the cook (you know she or he has been working hard!), and consider donating to a food bank as well. Sharing gifts enhances our own gratitude, while providing for those truly in need.
And despite travels and the commencement of 2024’s holiday busyness, continue to embrace (as much a possible) your own daily structure – thus maintaining self-discipline to keep progressing toward goals. That said, let’s also allow ourselves grace when we veer off-track a bit with nutrition and exercise. It happens. And tomorrow, jump right back in.
You’ve got this.
So in November, let’s refocus on what matters. 💙 On where we’re going, eyes focused in front of us + ahead. And if we fall? No worries. As the ever-inspiring Eric Thomas says, “if we can look up, we can get up.” So keep moving forward, fueled with thankfulness for the breath in our lungs, the crispness in the cool air 🍁, and the cozies we feel when we focus where it matters most. 💙
May your November days be blessed. May thankfulness soothe the soul and fearless optimism guide personal progress + inner joy.
