Honor Your Hope

The Shine App
About this episode

We’ve learned so much in the past year and are facing another time of transition and change. For our final journaling exercise of March, join us in reflecting on what hope means to you and how you can create space for it in the months ahead. Grab that journal! Voiced by Mel Chanté.

Takeaways:
1- Hope is the belief that things might change for the better.
2- Hope gives us motivation to act and strive—even in the face of unpredictability or change.  
3- We can train our mind to cultivate hope, and in doing so, build our resilience through good times and bad.

Mantra: I have hope for the future.

They’re boring retellings of your favorite 90’s and 2000’s movies, like “How Stella Got Her Snooze Back.” Head to theshineapp.com/sleep to start your Shine Premium membership and get a better night’s sleep tonight.
