Taking a mindful moment to recall the "little things" that bring us gratitude and joy can sometimes be all it takes to create a refreshed mindset. This mini-meditation is derived from my book RISE: mini mindful morning meditations.

Transcript

This is Julie Scone and I call this mini meditation,

Little Things.

Begin to slow your breathing.

Listen to the sound of each inhale and exhale.

Allow each breath to fill you with droplets of gratitude.

Starting with the soles of your feet,

Slowly moving to the crown of your head.

Guide your breath into every cell of your body.

As your breath flows for you in and out,

Repeat the words to yourself,

Thank you.

When you feel ready,

Close your eyes and answer this question in your mind.

What are the little things that you are grateful for today?

Allow the answers to float to the surface of your mind,

Acknowledge them,

Send them gratitude and then let them drift away.

I will give you some time to once again answer the question in your mind,

What are the little things you are grateful for today?

Place your hands on your hearts and once again fill this moment and your day ahead with gratitude by simply repeating the words,

Thank you.

Have a beautiful day.

Thank you I use this at the end of my day today with my dog as we went to bed. It was a great reminder that at the end of the day there is always something to be grateful for! Especially after a very, very difficult day. I appreciate you.
