My mum's nursing home may be coming out of lockdown in a few days.

I get to argue, face to face, with my son who has been living in Germany for 4 years and unable to visit for two 🙂

I had a magic dip in the ocean at Avoca Beach, feel so cleansed. 🙏🏼

I cut my timber for the front Arbor while I waited for the plaster to dry on the walls in the 2nd bedroom, then got showered and went to the pub, most productive day...👍👍😘

Talked my friend first time in a while

My lovely neighbour gave me a beautiful bunch of flowers 💐

My grandson came and stopped with me for the morning

Had coffee brought to me in bed.

I had a walk in the sunshine and a swim in the pool, 2 favourite things.

Reconnected with an old friend of many years that had moved away. She's coming to visit. Very exciting.

Wrote with an international writing group on Zoom.

Had a cuppa with a friend

Found a TOP on special ✅👍$24.95. Down to $6

Spoke to my brother

Change your mind with gratitude. Science has now established that our brains are much more flexible than previously thought. In part, this means we have some control over our thinking habits and the feelings they awaken within us.

One simple but effective way to shift focus from negative to positive is to consciously cultivate gratitude. Writing down three things we are grateful for each day - no matter how small! - connects us with our blessings and helps us draw on our strengths when times are tough.

Examine your old beliefs - Unhelpful beliefs about ourselves can significantly dent our mental health, life outcomes and relationships with other people. When such thoughts arise, acknowledge them and put them aside.

Like any new practice, it takes time and effort to break negative thought patterns, which may have persisted since childhood. A mental health professional may help, especially in the early months of habits evolving.

A underlying cause of anxiety for many people, particularly women, is trying to meet everyone else's needs. It's a sure way to feel exhausted, devalued and, eventually, resentful.

Breaking the habit of saying 'yes' to things you don't have the time or emotional capacity for takes practise - and may ruffle some feathers at first - but it's invaluable for your own mental health and well-being.
