I know it's important too sit quietly and do nothing and just relax and clear your mind, but I have trouble not being busy all the time. Will have to make an effort. Thanks Jan, enjoy the rest of the week.

I try to do this every day, but sometimes life doesn't let you. Thanks for the reminder. It's a good point and really is good for your health too. I wonder if anyone has done a study on that. Happy rest of the weekend to you Jan.

Hello Erika ... many thanks for your comment.
There is an article titled 'People Underestimate The Joys Of Sitting And Thinking, Study Suggests' which you can read using this link:-

I know not everybody likes to sit and feel they are doing nothing but speaking personally I find it helpful and rewarding.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

All the best Jan

So very true Jan. I am a wee bitty under the weather today, had to leave work early last night. Not sure if it was flu but my muscles and body ached all over. I am feeling a bit better after a long sleep.

Christine said...

Apologies for calling you Wanda Jan! I had just left her blog previous to visiting yours.

Luiz Gomes said...

Boa tarde de Domingo e bom início de semana. Maravilhoso conselho.

Carla from The River said...

I try to do this everyday. But I did not always, last year in 2024 I started to make it a habit to do it, and I did my best to get it in each day of the year!!! And I am off to a good start for 2025. Thank you so much for this reminder.
Love, Carla

I confess that I have never ritualized it in this manner.

Wanda said...

I treasure silence. My quiet time in the mornings, with my Bible, Prayer Journal and Hymn book, My special time and place on the corner of my couch!!
Blessing!!

Beautiful!! Being grateful for the good in life is good for our minds and souls

Conniecrafter said...

IT is a very good thing to do each day, I use to right them down in my grateful journal but haven't done that in some time, I need to start that again.
