Last night, I went to a yoga workshop with link no longer available Melody Butler Yoga link no longer available , and at the end, we all started a gratitude journal for the month of November. Of course, this is a practice I already have, so I just added to the journal I’ve already got.

Still, the practice got my wheels turning, and I thought back to when I first got started.

Early in my practice, it was hard to come up with something new to write about every day. A lot of my journaling got pretty redundant for awhile, before I got good at it.

Does that sound like your gratitude journaling? These journal prompts will help you get your gratitude practice started. Then, you can make gratitude a habit to last all year!
