* Comment "GRATEFUL" for a special on our Lil Gratitude Journal * As Thanksgiving approaches, we turn to gratitude. Research shows how practicing gratitude regularly supports our mental health. At the same time, I hear this a lot:

When I asked, "What am I grateful for?" I have the same answers - my health, my family, my partner. It gets old, then I fall off.

So, here are three tips for keeping"What am I grateful for?" fresh, so every time you ask, "What am I grateful for?" you are renewed with gratitude.

1. Be specific

Say you write, "I am grateful for my partner." Be specific. Go deeper. What is something about your partner you are grateful for? How does that something about them impact you?

Say you write, "I'm grateful for my health." Be specific. What is one healthy, or healed, or healing part of your body or mind that you are grateful for? How does this area of your health impact you?

2. Journal about specific experiences

Journaling about experiences you are grateful for never gets old, because you always have new - and old - experiences to draw from.

At the end of the day, you can journal about one experience - big or small - from your day you are grateful for. Maybe it was a challenge you overcame. Maybe it was a moment of connection with someone. Maybe it was something you learned. Maybe it was some support you received. Maybe it was the hot shower you took.

3. Use your five senses

Right now, I am grateful that I see...
I am grateful that I hear...
I am grateful that I smell...
I am grateful that I taste...
I am grateful that I feel...

The main thing is: Be specific. Go deeper.

By being specific, we can always draw on something to feel the nourishing affects of gratitude. By going deeper, we also learn about ourselves - what matters to us and what serves us, further supporting our wellness practice.

I'm excited to share that I'm finally ready to bring back our Live Monthly Mini-Retreats!

"The vibe, the relaxation, the tone of her voice, the thoughtfully created journal prompts, the options, the ease she transferred to each participant to make us feel like old college roommates that have known one another for eons!!." - Mini-Retreat Participant

Our Journaling Mini-Retreats are an affirming, positive space where you can experience the healing power of journaling in community. In our 45 minutes together, we gather on Zoom, and I guide us in a few journaling exercises with thoughtful prompts. The flow of our mini-retreats is:

💛 Process: check in with your feelings and process what's been weighing on you
💛 Release: clear the clutter from your mind as you put pen to paper
💛 Center: come back to self-love through affirming journaling that harnesses your inner wisdom and kindness

Mini-Retreats are once a month on Thursdays 8-8:45pm EST. Upcoming Dates:
💛 September 19
💛 October 10
💛 November 14

As Mental Health Awareness Month kicks off, I come back to one of my favorite journaling prompts I use in some of my journaling workshops. "I am worthy of..."

I invite you to pause, grab a pen and paper, and take even 3 minutes to write down lines beginning "I am worthy of..."

Make it personal to you and where you are in your mental health journey. Before we can implement tips and recommendations for our mental health, we need to believe to our core that we are worthy of healing, health, and wellness. This prompt invites you to embrace your worth.

Wow, it's so great to be writing to you. This is my first newsletter since the new year - since having Baby Girl!

These last few months have been incredible. New motherhood is quite the journey. There have been days so hard they are soul crushing. Then there are moments so profound, there's no way for me to even describe the feeling.

As expected, motherhood has made practicing wellness much harder in some ways. But, there are some ways where the precise challenges of motherhood has helped me with my wellness.

One way in particular I noticed was that I started to truly see and celebrate my small wins, especially as it came to my self-care. Because between endless cluster feedings and Baby struggling to sleep, ANYTHING I did for myself became a victory. Showered? Victory. Ate a meal? Victory. Pooped? VICTORY.

I think this new mindset was a survival technique. But I can feel in my mind, heart, and even in my body, how much a difference it has made. On those hard, hard days, saying "victory" lifted me. And it's helped me keep up my wellness routines. My full body stretch during morning outside time with Baby - Victory! My five minutes of journaling before I wake up Baby for her first feeding - Victory!

Of course, this doesn't only apply to motherhood. Recognizing and celebrating our small wins helps us find our balance wherever we are in life. What about you? What is one thing for which you can claim, "victory"?

Remember, you are allowed to call any small thing "victory." There is no benchmark or judge. Those small things for our self-care or those little steps forward in the journey you are in can still be so hard. So yes, say it. Victory!

With love,
Alina

October is a time for transition. The weather is finally cooling. The leaves will soon do their brilliant red and yellow dance before falling to the ground.

We, too, are invited to reflect, shed, and transform. For our October Half-Day Wellness Retreat at Zenit's brick and mortar shop, Made With Love, our theme is: Simplify.

Zenit founder and wellness practitioner Alina will guide you through mind, body, and art experiences to explore what no longer serves you, release it to the universe, and simplify on what matters most to you.
