when life gives you lemons...

... make lemon8! (haha, see what I did there?)

by the way, its june?? already???? time sure does fly when all it feels like you do is work and come home. I may not have a lot of energy these days, but the art of noticing has helped me to find the magic in even the most mundane parts of my life. without them, I'd be too much in my own head, and that's never a good place to be for too long.

noticing little, daily joys helped from keeping myself imprisoned in my own mind. I've been told before that how I react to small things with such delight is alien-like in and of itself. to the point where it changes their perspective on how they experience things that are "normal" for them. (example: my first time having a Sam's Club pizza??? man, you should've been there.)

if openly expressing joy in even the smallest moments inspires others to do the same, then surely I am doing something right.

your homework: please make a decision that brings you, and only you, the joy you have been waiting for. Do something that brings you closer to falling in love with YOUR life.

... Read moreIn today's fast-paced world, it's easy to overlook the joyful moments that enrich our lives. The act of 'noticing,' as highlighted in our article, can transform mundane experiences into sources of happiness. Whether it's savoring a slice of pizza or appreciating a kind note from a delivery person, small gestures and experiences can profoundly impact our well-being. For instance, take a cue from how plants can breathe life into our daily routine. Caring for plants not only fosters mindfulness but also connects us to nature, reminding us of life's simplicity. As seen in the experiences of many, sharing moments like finding a puddle after a rainstorm or enjoying a cozy gaming session can spark joy and serve as a reminder to live in the moment. Moreover, personal anecdotes, such as receiving unexpected kindness or enjoying a creative hobby, reinforce the message that joy exists in the little things. Areas like the #littlethings and #happymoments encourage us to celebrate these experiences together. This June, challenge yourself with the #lemon8challenge to actively seek and share moments that bring you joy, inspiring not just yourself but those around you. Remember, the act of appreciating these moments can change your perspective, creating a ripple effect of positivity.
