Day 5 :: Gratitude & a New Moon

The moon enters a new lunar cycle today - a perfect time for setting intentions and counting our blessings. No surprise, my intention for the month is to practice compassion. I'm adding a focus on gratitude too, as the two really go together.

Practicing gratitude urges us to find the positive in our daily lives, and allows us to develop a greater awareness and appreciation for the little blessings that make up our days. From this, compassion flows naturally, as we open our hearts to the people, places and things we are grateful for.

Tonight, I will gather with the Mamas for our monthly New Moon ritual. We have a special mindful crafting activity planned too, themed around gratitude. I'm excited to share it with you here tomorrow!

Happy New Moon in Cancer (again)!
