5 Ways to Practice Gratitude

November 28, 2019Leave a comment

It kind of feels like a cliché but 'tis the season, right? I've written about the monkey in my head before and I usually refer to this monkey in a negative way-with bad self talk and overwhelming thoughts which leads to momXiety and the inability to move foreward. And while this bad little monkey still … Continue reading 5 Ways to Practice Gratitude

We just finished our second one for the day🙈 ☃️ But the best part? My husband, who claims to not like them, commented on just about every line, had an opinion about the story line, and offered suggestions about which toy proto type the main character should have presented 😆 • #hallmarkchristmasmovies:1. Husband: 0 . . . . #drnikkiknight #momXiety #anxiety #essentialoils #essentialoils101 #doterraliving #easternmedicine #westernmedicine #doterra #nontoxic #toxinfree #mom #momlife #mommingsohard #christmas #christmas2019
I HAVE A RIDDLE FOR YOU: what's highly volatile, widely criticized and is 60,000 years old? . If you haven't guessed already, the answer is in today's blog post. . I spent four years researching essential oils for anxiety for my doctorate program. One of the most interesting things I learned was the history of them. I share a snippet of my manuscript with you all because I think it's important to know just how set in history these drops are. . Go check it out!

Be impeccable with your word...one of the agreements in The 4 Agreements. . I've heard this SO many times and I thought I understood what it meant (and I also have a really handsome husband who says this to me on a daily so I hear it a lot). . Here's what I thought it meant: If you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all. Choose your words wisely, only speak up if it's helpful, not hurtful. . And, it does mean those things but as I realized the other day doing the dishes (when I come up with the best ideas of course 🤪) that it means SO much more than that. . It also means that the words you speak are sent out in the the spiderverse (spiderman goes hard in our house right now 😆) and they come back to us in actions, feelings, events, illness, etc. Be impeccable with your word. What kinds of things would you like to come back to you? Think about it before you speak it. Tell stories of light and love, silver linings and good vibes. Quit telling the stories that create negative anxious feelings. Ever catch yourself saying, "this kind of stuff always happens to me!" STOP. Just stop right there. Dont even speak of it. Instead, Find what makes you feel good when you speak it and let THAT be the story you tell. . And let me begin...I love this rain, it makes me feel cozy and that, arguably, is my favorite feeling😍☔🌧☕ . Go forth and conquer, my friends, you've got this! . . . . #drnikkiknight #momXiety #anxiety #essentialoils #essentialoils101 #doterraliving #easternmedicine #westernmedicine #doterra #nontoxic #toxinfree #mom #momlife #positivevibes #goodvibes #trustyourdopeness
Every day you have a decision. • Are you going to feel happy or sad? Are you going to let that thing ruin your mood? Are you going to give it your all or take it easy? Are you going to forgive or hold on to that thing? Are you going to see the silver lining in that unfortunate event or dwell in the negative Are you going to participate relentlessly in the manifestation of your dreams or just take what comes your way? • You are creating the world you live in right now. Take a look around, like what you see? Awesome! Keep it up! Not happy with your reality? Make a different decision. It's not too late, I promise☺️ . ....I also made a decision to wear reindeer ears at work today sooooo, there's that😆. Check out my stories to see what that's all about🎅❄🌲☃️🦌 . . . . . #nikkiglo #drnikkiknight #momXiety #anxiety #essentialoils #essentialoils101 #doterraliving #easternmedicine #westernmedicine #doterra #nontoxic #toxinfree #mom #momlife #mommingsohard #positivevibes #goodvibes #trustyourdopeness #iamenough #shineyourlight

Did I mention that last night was the first night I've slept the whole night in 6 years (with an emphasis on whole night and 6 years) without waking up to someone kicking me in the face, forcing me to turn over and rub their tummy, getting up to go to the bathroom, coughing, snoring, or any of the other things that wake me up 42 times a night? True story! Can I get an AMEN for that?!🙌 I'm feeling so good I'm not even sure what to do with my self🤔😆😁🤪 🤞 Here's to hoping for another night of 8 glorious hours and I wish the same for you too, momma🙏 . . . . . #nikkiglo #drnikkiknight #momXiety #anxiety #essentialoils #essentialoils101 #doterraliving #easternmedicine #westernmedicine #doterra #nontoxic #toxinfree #mom #momlife #essentialoils #essentialoils101 #doterraliving #sleep #cosleeping
