We all know the consequences of daily chores left unattended – it can seem overwhelming to have to face a backlog of dishes or laundry. We also know that by consistently taking a few moments each day to deal with these chores they become easily manageable.  Similarly with mental health, by taking a few moments each day to pause for positivity you are in fact making a decision to lead an open and mindful life.  It is essential to note here the use of the word “decision” because decision is, in effect, an action resulting from a choice and we all have to make choices on a daily basis.  The important thing is to make the right choices.
