Try to recall your “little moments of happiness”. When was the last time you were satisfied? Was it because of something pleasant that happened to you? What was it that made you happy? What did you feel? Did you share this feeling with someone? When you recall this event, does it still make you happy? Share your experiences. Listen carefully to each other. Answer kindly to what you hear.
A collection of good memories
Prepare a bottle, jug or jar, small pieces of paper and crayons or something to write with. Write down or draw your best memories and collect them in the prepared container. There can be one for the whole family or several, one for each of you. Your memories may relate to family celebrations or holidays or things you like to do together every day. Keep the container for good memories open. You’ll always be able to add something.
Let’s take a look at our memories
Remember what has happened to you recently that was important and that you would like to talk about. Sometimes these will be nice situations, ones that would make your collection and sometimes, unpleasant experiences. You can close your eyes to reflect quietly. Think about the last time something unpleasant happened to you. What did you feel? Did you feel dissatisfied? Sad? Angry? What was it all about? Did this situation last long? What did you do to turn it around? Now, when you recall this situation, does it still seem so difficult for you? It’s worth appreciating not only the moments that we enjoyed, but also those that were difficult, but we managed to deal with them. It strengthens us and shows that we can handle different situations.
