30 Days to Greater Happiness

Filed under: 30 Days To...,Gratitude — gardener @ 7:25 am

I haven’t really made it a secret that I’ve been struggling a little as of late. Ok, maybe it’s even more than a little, but I am still trying to dig myself out of this deep, dark hole that I’m in. Slowly, but surely I know this will pass.

Because I know that nothing happens as an accident, I couldn’t help but smile this morning when I opened my email and found one from SparkPeople about spending November working your way towards greater happiness. Even though I am a happy person on the whole, I thought it couldn’t hurt to put these little things into practice.

Because I also love to share things that I think could possibly benefit another person, I’m going to share them with y’all as well. This means I’ll be sharing one each day for the rest of the month. Since today is the 2nd of November- I’ll add the one for today and yesterday, so we’ll be caught up.

Thank you Spark People.

30 Days to Greater Happiness-

November 1-Start a hobby. People who engage in captivating activities are more satisfied with life. Lose yourself (and your worries) by cooking, dancing, sewing or writing.

November 2- Get Plenty of Sleep. Keep a consistent sleep schedule and get at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night for more energy and less moodiness.

Now that JJ is sleeping through the night, I’m actually getting back on the sleep track, but I could definitely spend somre more time with my hobbies. I’m going to do just that. It’s time to read more, take more pictures, and make some jewelry. Who knows, maybe I’ll even pull out my paints again. I’ve also been in the mood to bake- time to do something with those bananas.. Banana muffins anyone?
