The Mindful Minute: Fill up your Cup
Be your own best friend! How do you feel your cup?
At the end of each day, at the end of each week, give yourself a gift. Find something to look forward to at the end of each day,
- a cup of tea
- positive affirmations, reflecting on our blessings,
- a favorite meal
- a favorite show... ie : The Mandalorian
- watching the sun set
Whatever is your treat to fill your cup, remember to take time to give back to yourself.
There is a lot happen that is taken out of our cup, make sure to give back.
Science fact: for every negative we hear, we need FIVE positives to refill 🙂 remember this when speaking to our students, children, spouses, and EVEN OURSELVES!!
