Start Your Day With Beauty

The world is filled with hard truths and heart-wrenching news. Life is complex!

Yet it’s important to remember all the good in the world, too. When we regularly touch into beauty, wonder, and gratitude, we feel better. Our hearts are buoyed and we’re more resilient.

Here’s a simple practice to try: Intentionally begin your day with beauty.

When you first wake up, look out a window, listen to music, read a poem, or view art. If you must be on your phone, then follow an awe-inspiring Instagram feed and spend time with it. Take a few deep breaths.

Do something (right away in the morning) that connects you to beauty. This practice is a pause. And it's a reminder about what's good in the world.

Try it for a week and see what happens.

Start your day with beauty (whatever that means to you!). Let your mind and heart rest.
