Transcript
Hello and welcome to this week's Monday motivation.
Heather Masters:I'm Heather Masters and I do this little video every Monday just to give you a, hopefully an encouraging start to your week.
Heather Masters:Now, what I did this morning is I've really started journaling.
Heather Masters:I'm actually launching a journaling 30 day experience, if you like, and I've been practicing it out for myself.
Heather Masters:So before I actually launch it.
Heather Masters:So here are some prompts that I have been using over the last few days.
Heather Masters:I've really made a difference to how I start my day, and I thought it'd be really valuable to share them with you so you can really get your week off to a good start.
Heather Masters:Now, the first one is always a bit of a challenge, I think.
Heather Masters:And that's ten things that you love or really like about yourself.
Heather Masters:You know, it might be how you do your hair, how you cook an omelette, whatever it is, how you make coffee, whatever it is for you.
Heather Masters:Write down ten things that you really like about yourself.
Heather Masters:You really like the way you do that thing, or the really you really like the way that you maybe communicate with certain people.
Heather Masters:So write down ten things that you love or really like about yourself.
Heather Masters:The other thing is ten things that bring you joy.
Heather Masters:Now, in my newsletter yesterday, I posted a link to a kind of package on my choosing happy website, which goes with my podcast.
Heather Masters:All about.
Heather Masters:About things that make you happy so that you have kind of a support system for when things go wrong.
Heather Masters:And maybe no one's around to cheer you up.
Heather Masters:So things that you can do to cheer you up.
Heather Masters:And one way of finding those is to ask yourself, what are ten things that bring you joy?
Heather Masters:And they don't have to be complicated.
Heather Masters:It can be music, it can be reading, whatever it is for you.
Heather Masters:So write down ten things that bring you joyous.
Heather Masters:And now that you have those 20 items, those 20 things work out how you can weave them somehow into your week.
Heather Masters:Whether it's taking a moment when you do that thing you love, or you're being that person you love, to acknowledge that and to really appreciate yourself, that you know you actually really like that about yourself, or whether it's something that brings you joy, that you weave those joyful moments back into your week on a more regular basis so that your days are more joyful, even if you're just doing them twice a day.
Heather Masters:So maybe you're consciously taking time to stand in nature and just breathe for five minutes, or take your coffee outside instead of sitting in the stuffy old office.
Heather Masters:Whatever it is for you.
Heather Masters:Weave them into your week and really go out to have an amazing, joy filled and love filled week.
Heather Masters:I'll see you again on Wednesday.
Heather Masters:I'd love it if you'd like, share and subscribe because it really helps me keep going with the channel.
Heather Masters:And I'll see you on Wednesday for Wednesday.
