Day 1: 25 Days of Gratitude, Self-Care and Personal Growth for 2024!
Hi everyone!
Happy 1st December and time goes so quickly. I'm excited to start a 25-day challenge focused on gratitude, self-care, and personal growth for 2024. Those of you may remember that we did this last year and as it was so popular it might be useful to continue. This journey is for anyone looking to nurture their mental health, cultivate positive and perhaps even new habits, and find more joy in their daily lives.
Why 25 Days?
Small Steps, big impact: We'll break down larger goals into manageable daily tasks.
Habit formation: 25 days is a useful time frame to establish new habits.
Community support: We'll be here to encourage and support each other throughout the challenge.
What to Expect:
Daily prompts and engaging therapeutic content: Each day, we'll share prompts related to gratitude, self-care, or personal growth.
A safe sharing space: Feel free to share your thoughts, experiences, and progress in the comments.
Community support: Let's create a positive and supportive space for everyone.
Let's Get Started!
We are excited that you're on this journey with us at 7 Cups!
Remember:
Be kind to yourself: It's okay to miss a day or two or even five. Just pick up where you left off and all are welcome to participate!
Progress, not perfection: Focus on making small improvements each day.
Celebrate your wins: No matter how small, acknowledge your achievements. 🌻
Let's make this a month of positive change and it’s okay if you are not feeling as positive as you would like to be. We understand that sometimes no matter what you believe, the holiday season can be challenging for many reasons, we are here for you and you may find some of our prompts and content helpful.
Day 1: What is one thing you’ve done recently to take care of your mental health and well-being, and how did it make you feel?

''Enjoy the little things'' I like that
@LisaMeighanMScGMBPsS Okay, so this is the right one - could either this thread be edited with a link to the current day each day, or the pinned thread be swapped each day, please?
@cloudySummer that is a good idea but with the holidays there is no free time.
Would you like to post the links in a separate thread?
@soulsings Ami has already started doing it, don't know whether she's keeping up with it or not, but it's in the pinned post.
@cloudySummer thanks I see that now.

What is one thing you’ve done recently to take care of your mental health and well-being, and how did it make you feel?
Had a good night's sleep for 9 hours. It made me feel refreshed and happy.
@Admirablerainbow2825
Sleep makes everything feel better :) I am so glad you had a restful sleep and hoping you had many more good nights of sleep too.

This sounds like a great app that you are using! Creating daily routines are so powerful and beneficial to your well-being. You've done so well to create a routine as it can be difficult planning our days and fitting in everything we need to do!
