My daily ritual includes mediation, writing grateful thoughts, sipping on tea and asking a question, how can I help three people today? Do you have a tea drinking ritual? I invite you to take a few moments each day to create a gratTEAtude ritual.
Ask yourself a question like this, how can I decorate my life and the lives of others I encounter today? Make a list of your inspired ideas, set your intention, then make magic happen for yourself and others.
These are a few gifts which decorate my life and the lives of others:
Always:
• be posiTEAve.
• give people a piece of your heart.
• get caught up in being thankful.
• be nicer to yourself and others.
• stir up love wherever you go.
• share a smile and give a hug.
• start each day with a grateful thought.
• remember, when searching for a miracle, stop and look in the mirror.
• marvel at life.
• learn something new each day and share your knowledge with others.
• show appreciation.
• lift others.
• take five deep long breaths in and out when you wake up.
• forgive yourself, forgive others.
• be brave.
• be silly.
• be present.
• be kind.
• beTEAlightul to everyone you meet.

Thank you for the reminder. It’s so easy to get caught up in our own lives that we forget these important things.
I was given a gratitude journey a few weeks ago. I’ve been using it each day and it’s a pretty powerful tool. Learning to focus on gratitude is something that we’re not taught to do. I think we would each be happier and the world would be a better place if each child was taught this ritual to begin and end their day.
