Iā€™m grateful for this monday.
Up far too early due to nightmares and a jodeling oldtimer. Iā€™m grateful I took time to journal about the nightmares. Seems my subconscious is processing a lot. Some made even sense when I wrote it down.

I accomplished and did so much today, my brain runs in circles. Iā€™m grateful writing it down helped with the feeling I didnā€™t do stuff today. Iā€™m grateful things start falling into place. Appointments, information, oranizing ā€¦ This week is packed until sunday. Iā€™m grateful for all of it :pray:
Iā€™m grateful I ate healthy, not so grateful I was too hungry or nervous eating, I overdid it with lunch. Grateful I have 4 portions of yummi food in the freezer.

Iā€™m grateful I rest deliberately even when I donā€™t feel like resting. Taking care that I donā€™t overdo it or go into overdrive.
Iā€™m grateful I enjoyed the beautiful weather outside, on the balcony in the morning sunbathing, on the terrace late afternoon with a book and tea. Iā€™m grateful for my wonderful life. Iā€™m grateful I felt competent today and handled things well. Iā€™m grateful I asked the workers how to plant on the stonewall. Next attempt coming up!

Iā€™m grateful for catlove and the vet. I love my furballs so much :heart:

Iā€™m grateful Iā€™ll be early to bed. Tomorrow two important appointments are scheduled. ODAAT :pray:

Iā€™m grateful that today is one of the good days in the healing process.
We all know it isnā€™t linear, but the good days are a reminder that this is the path for me. :woman_in_lotus_position:

Iā€™m grateful to be letting go of the scapegoat complex and asserting free will. :yin_yang:

Iā€™m grateful that you all allow me this safe space to express my feelings and thoughts in a world where too many of us feel alone. :black_heart:

Iā€™m grateful for my animal companions, who have taught me unconditional love. :heartpulse:

Iā€™m grateful I tried Yoga and once had a lovely Yogini in Durango. Iā€™m grateful I can still use some of the principles she taught me in my reformer workouts, breathing techniques and meditations.

Iā€™m grateful for Yaks Yams and Yo-Yos. Do they even still have Yo-Yos?

Iā€™m grateful for Yogurt, sometimes.

Iā€™m grateful I grew up in the time of Yogi Bear. Cā€™mon BooBoo!!

Iā€™m grateful my good friends are getting to hike Yosemite Park this week.

Speaking of Yosemiteā€¦.Iā€™m grateful I grew up in the age of Yosemite Sam and BugsšŸ°

:pray:t2::heart:

ā€œLetā€™s stop throwing blame around.ā€ This one idea could be explored, meditated on, acted upon, from now until the end of our days. What would happen if we stopped blaming anyone for anything? We would experience miracles of tolerance and graceā€”rich spiritual rewards, reflected in a life of real fulfillment.

Gratitude for today

  • Morning panic subsided quicker then I had expected.
  • Took two fantastic bike rides through the city. I love this feeling of slight loss of control on every turn of the pedals. I love the wind, feeling my bodyā€˜s power translated into speed.
  • My daughter being migraine free and happy today.
  • Coupleā€˜s counseling was very productive today. The counselor helped me to voice my needs and my boundaries in a setting where my ex actually had to make the effort to listen and take responsibility. I have no idea if this will have any effect on his behaviour, but I did my part and I feel very relieved.
  • Getting all sorts of stuff done around the flat. Feeling far more energetic. I enjoyed this feeling.
  • Having enough energy for a yoga session and really enjoying it.
  • Some tv, a book, Recovery Dharma to wind down.

Sleep tight sober friends :night_with_stars:
