International Happiness Day

It's the little things in life that bring a smile to my dial @Queenie. The cricket that landed on my arm last night, the rising sun showing the promise of the new day, the grass pushing through the cracked earth after a decent drop of rain. Seeing my friends starting to achieve some balance in their lives. All small but also signs of rebirth - the inherent hope emerging from the darkness. 😀😆

Great thread @Queenie 🙂 I didn't know about international happiness day but I applaud anything that gets us to think about ways we can help ourselves be more happy. There's a great book called 'The How and Why of Happiness' that provides lots of science-backed strategies to help with this.

What makes me happy at the moment is checking out my daughters instagram feed. She's still pre-teen so it's all about DIY slime and playdates - very innocent and carefree. I know this stage won't last forever but for now jumping on there a couple of times during my work day really gives me a lift.

Thanks for the happiness reminder!

Fancy that, A HAPPINESS DAY, sounds like a real party... Well, maybe a reminder to have gratitude and express joy and deliberately make a conscious effort to create pleasantries in our mind and immediate surroundings, in the here and now. 🙂
