Daily

I do a few things daily to improve the quality of my life.

I have learned the importance of little daily habits. There was a time when I was young and could get away with all sorts of less than healthy things. It’s possible I spent too many days trying to undo my discomfort due to some of these.

Little by little it became clear that it’s worth the effort to do little things for my own well being everyday. I don’t know when I realized that nothing has to be extra hard or time consuming, but that regularity is important.

I used to make big dramatic changes, usually on Mondays, worry about my weight constantly, spend hours at the gym, run, try to eat a certain way (many forms of different dietary strictness). Little by little, I got away from all of that.

Now, I eat chocolate every day. I ignore the scale, I walk most days, do some form of yoga, and rarely run. (mostly only when I’m playing chase with grandkids). I like Mondays now, it’s just another day. My weight doesn’t fluctuate. I meditate.

I’m much kinder to myself. I eat fat. I drink coffee. I listen to music. I look for positive, beautiful things.

I’ll choose that. Positivity, beauty, fun. I choose to include as many high energy thoughts, doings, visuals in my day that I can.

I look for these. It’s not always easy. Some days feel wildly out of my hands.

Here’s something I’m learning and may have to continue to learn.

What I give my attention to seems to get bigger. If I take my attention away, it seems smaller.

‘Seems’ might be the key word here, but I don’t even care if it’s just my imagination. If I’m noticing every thing going wrong, not only do those things seem more overwhelming, but more things seem to go wrong.

If I can get myself to start noticing positive things, weirdly I see more good things. More good things start crowding out the not so good.

My circumstances are not ideal. I accept that. I just know that I can still live a good happy, high vibration life if I pay attention.
