So excited for a fresh new month and new year! This year on the blog I’ve decided to spend each month focusing on one topic for the entire month. There will be a monthly challenge, book to read, new blog post, and a bonus item (free printables, etc.). I’m excited for this new way of slowing down and having a focused view on one topic!

January Focus: Gratitude

This month our focus is going to be on gratitude. Since last year was a hard year for most, I thought we would start the first month delving into gratitude. Opening our eyes to see the million little gifts God gives us each day can be the pathway to joy. It can be a challenge, especially when things are hard, but I hope taking this month to focus on gratitude is encouraging to you.

So here we go!

January Challenge: Start a gratitude journal

January Book Club: “One Thousand Gifts” by Ann Voskamp

January bonus: Printable gratitude prompts and journal pages

January Challenge

This month we will focus on listing our gifts in a gratitude journal! Listing the things we are thankful for and being intentional about noticing them, cuts down on stress and brings peace and joy. Such a simple practice and such a great habit to begin as we enter into this new year.

TO DO: Come back to the blog on January 4th for all things gratitude as we dive into this month’s challenge! There will be a free weekly gratitude worksheet, tips and ideas, and prompts to get you started.

January Book Club

I’m really excited about this month’s book! Ann Voskamp writes beautifully and the message is so profound. I think you’ll really love it. It’s “One Thousand Gifts” by Ann Voskamp.

TO DO:

• Pick up a copy as quick as you can of “One Thousand Gifts” by Ann Voskamp
• Read at your own pace. I’ll be posting a few chapters at a time every week on the blog so you could follow at this pace or just catch up as you come to that chapter.
• Share your thoughts! Leave a comment on the blog so we can interact with one another!

I’d love to know if you’ll be joining in this month! Leave me a comment and let me know! Have a wonderful month and all the best in 2021!
