You need 7 weeks’ worth of material. (It can be more than 7 weeks but not less than 7)?Each week write down 5 things (you can write more) that happened to you that week that you are grateful for. It should be a sentence or two about your feelings and reflection on it. E mail me if you need more clarification.?I will collect your notes in the end of a semester.
2) SELF APPRECIATION EXERCISE
You need 7 weeks’ worth of material. (It can be more than 7 weeks but not less than 7)?Each week write down 5 qualities (you can write more) that you love and appreciate about yourself, things that you have done that week that made you feel good about yourself (From helping out a friend, to doing something good for a stranger, it does not have to be a grandiose thing it can be driving around your grandparents, cooking your parents’ favorite meal for them, opening a door for someone etc.) Along the way you may discover positive personality traits that you were not even aware of. This is not a selfishness exercise it is merely allowing yourself to appreciate and love who you are. Love for others starts from love of self.
