 Noosa, Australia ✨ ✨ Here is a share of my recent adventures in the world of gratitude, inspiration, and personal growth. Even as someone who preaches the power of gratitude and has created Gratitude Digital Journals, I occasionally find myself falling off the gratitude waggon. It's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of life and forget what truly matters. So, last week, I decided to get back on track and reignite my gratitude practice. Below are a couple of things that happened when I started to practice gratitude again: ✨ Reconnecting with Books One of the many things was rediscovering my love for books again. It had been ages since I'd set foot in a library, and when I finally did, I stumbled upon a treasure trove of criminal novels, some inspirational and some spiritual books. Among the gems I found was a book by Dolores Cannon titled "The Three Waves of Volunteers and the New Earth." Reading it reminded me of my purpose and why I'm here - a topic worth exploring in a future episode. I also found some of my favourite Swedish Noir criminal novel authors, especially Camilla Lackberg. Her books are hard to put down! I also found an amazing inspiring book by author Mari Andrew called “My Inner Sky, On embracing day, night and all the times in between.” ✨ The Artist's Way to Creativity As I continued, I realised that writing was a vital part of it. However, I'd often find myself starting but then losing my creative flow. A friend introduced me last year to "The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity" by Julia Cameron. This book is a source of creative inspiration and a practical guide for discovering and recovering your creative self. I committed to writing every morning, and, at the time of writing this, I'm on day 28, which, as they say, is when a habit begins to form. ✨Embracing Health and Fitness Gratitude has always had a way of creating a ripple effect in my life. It also sparked a desire to focus on my physical well-being. A couple of weeks ago, I walked past a local gym and decided to take a peek. To my surprise, they were offering a free month of sessions with no sign-up fee. I joined, and, as of now, I'm in my sixth or seventh week of spinning classes 2-3 times a week. It is exhausting but fun! ✨ Securing My Sanctuary Finding an affordable rental in Australia can be quite challenging, and I have been lucky so far to have a place to call home. I just signed a lease for another year this week, and the rent increase was much more manageable this time. I couldn't be happier about my lovely spot in Noosa on the Sunshine Coast. I feel so lucky to live here! ✨ Connecting with Amazing People I have found that the more you work on yourself, the more you connect with like-minded people. These connections often happen for a reason. ✨ Audiobooks Galore I'm an avid fan of books, but audiobooks have a special place in my heart. I just discovered that Spotify has released over 120,000 audiobooks here in Australia! Now, I'm speeding through them to absorb as much knowledge and inspiration as I can! No more boring car drives! ✨ Crafting a Bucket List Journal One of the recent sparks of inspiration was creating a bucket list journal. I'm currently working on a printable version as well as a digital edition for iPad and Android users. Stay tuned! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ To tie it all together, I want to leave you with a powerful message from the one and only Robert Edward Grant. (See YouTube video below) He delves into the concepts of “mentalism” and gratitude, emphasising the importance of what we think and believe, which creates our reality. He also highlights the role of gratitude in raising our vibrations and countering fear. And most importantly, he encourages us to remember why we're here. Have you ever considered your purpose and what truly lights up your life? For me, it's about sharing stories, spreading joy, and raising vibrations. It's about the little things that make life shine. Until next time, keep shining and embracing the beauty of life! ✨ 💗 Yenny 💫 Pssst 💫 - If you would like to know more about my product updates, receive monthly freebies, my podcast and upcoming courses, make sure you subscribe to my 💌 NEWSLETTER 💌 A great TED talk by Robert Edward Grant, as mentioned in my latest podcast show.
