Energy of Gratitude: The Start of a New Month…
Feeling energized today? I myself have been wanting to crawl into bed and warm up under the covers these past two days. Probably because of the weather here in Michigan – rainy and very chilly.
But since a new month started yesterday, there is definitely a part of me that feels energized. There’s something that happens as I say goodbye to the previous month and look toward what lies ahead in the new month.
Overall September was a good month for me. Although it went by way too fast, I did enjoy it. I am grateful for the experiences that I had with my family, and I am grateful for the start of my new business. What about you? How was September in your part of the world? Even if it wasn’t quite how you had envisioned, is there something for which you can offer gratitude?
Offering gratitude for something, however small it may seem, moves us in the right direction for increasing our energy. When we’re focused on what isn’t working in our lives, we get weighed down by that energy and start to feel stagnant. Shifting our focus to what is good in our lives can make a big difference in our energy level.
I also like to think about what this new month might bring. I’m looking forward to several upcoming weekend events, as well as Halloween with my children. Next week will probably be a good time to get out the decorations and make our house look a bit more festive!
What about the month of October is exciting for you? Is there something that you’re particularly looking forward to? Perhaps you can approach this new month with fresh eyes…view it as a clean slate on which you get to create. Just dwelling, even for a few moments, in the energy of possibility is so uplifting. Give it a try. Let me know what your experience is like.
