🧡 Friday Reflection: Your Invitation to Smile
Each Friday, I invite you to share the brilliant, beautiful and bonkers things that have happened to put a smile on you face this week.
It’s been a difficult week here in a lot of respects as I’ve been struggling with this tummy bug that’s been doing the rounds. But it’s reenforced to me how lucky I am to be able to do a lot of my work from my home. I didn’t have to cancel client Zoom calls. Could still carry out my monthly distance Reiki treatment. And I could still record my podcasts and write my blogs. All without infecting anyone else. I’m lucky to have friends that don’t mind when I have to cancel plans at the last minute (vital if you struggle with endo or anxiety!). And I’m lucky to have a husband that doesn’t mind if we sit there in comfortable silence for a whole afternoon because we’re both feeling rotten. I’m lucky that I love autumn; the colours on the trees and the watery skies never fail to lift my soul. And I’m glad to have been able to offer support to a close friend who’s going through a tough time - grateful for the technology that enables us to stay connected even if we can’t physically see each other.
No matter how difficult things seem or how much our symptoms may be impacting, looking back at all the good things brings a beautiful sense of wellbeing and invites more good things into our lives.
So, this Friday as every Friday, please do set aside 15 minutes to reflect on the week you’ve had. What have you done that you’re proud of? What put a grin on your face? What made your soul sing? And what would you like to see more of next week?
If you’re a paid Halcyon Days® subscriber then feel free to share your thoughts and celebrate your smiles in the comments.
I wish, for you all, a beautifully happy, peaceful and fulfilled weekend 🧡
