August Gratitude Challenge: what are you grateful for?
This discussion forms part of our Life Challenges event. Click here to read more about it!
Life is hard and it's important that we're kind to ourselves. In the hustle and bustle of day-to-day challenges our achievements and gratitude can become easily clouded. This month we are going to try that little bit harder to acknowledge and celebrate everything that we are grateful for.
How do I participate?
1. Every day for the month of August revisit this thread and list one new thing that you are grateful for. It can be something small like developing the strength to achieve a goal, or it could be something bigger and more meaningful. The possibilities are endless!
2. If you'd like to get reminded to post in the thread, click the subscribe bookmark in the bottom left hand corner. This will notify you each time someone replies to the thread, providing you with a natural reminder to post your daily gratitude.
3. Share the love. Share your support of others if you can by upvoting or replying to their posts. It can take a lot to share your gratitude so creating a safe space here is crucial for everyone's comfort.
4. There is no pressure to commit to it every day, but it'll be great and no doubt very rewarding if you could!
So, what are you grateful for today?
Today I'm grateful for 7 Cups 💛 As cheesy as it sounds, this really is a warm, loving and friendly community. I've not only grown as a person whilst being here but also met some very passionate and talented people.
Thank you to everyone for making this community so perfect!

You are very accurate in saying this is a positive place! I am grateful for all of the information that is on here. I can learn something new everyday or several things in one day because of the amount of that information. I like doing lessons before I speak with people because it helps me learn something new to apply to the conversations.

I am grateful for the love from my family and boyfriend and the few friends I have ( I have broken some friendships because they were toxic ) , I am also grateful for the improving of my health since surgery in March taking little step to improve my self care and self compassion to me
@tommy
I'm grateful for honesty, kindness and good humour.
When I scan people, places and things with my right brain and acknowledge who and what they are I'm given the opportunity to move forward in a holistic way that's true to my values and principles rather than only on a near-blind surface level of the baser senses. All the six senses working together is beautiful.
Today I am grateful for the groceries in my house 😋 I got mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches
@StrawberryShaken
