GLOWY Daily Reflection Practice
The GLOWY daily reflection practice includes an original acronym I developed to guide myself and my readers through a mindful reflection. I find practicing the GLOWY daily reflection practice each day helps connect me to myself and those around me.
Gratitude
Recognize things in your life that you’re grateful for.
Lift Up
Identify circumstances, people or struggles that are causing you or others to suffer; or needed wisdom/resources.
Observe
Scan your body and notice sensations, thoughts and feelings you’re experiencing; observe your surroundings.
Wholesome Intention
Set a clear, positive statement of the outcome you want to experience; how you intend to be, live and show up.
You Are
Write positive affirmations about who you are.
Here’s an example from my book:
I’m Grateful for my friends, family, beta readers and coaches who’ve helped.
I Lift up the readers of this book, the visitors to my website and anyone seeking a more mindful life—may they be blessed with resources and support beyond their wildest imaginations.
I Observe that I’m excited to share the message of mindfulness with my readers, and a bit nervous, too.
My Wholesome intention is to help others by sharing what I’ve learned and experienced in an accessible way.
You are a creator with a kind, loving heart.
