Monday’s can be a drag. Especially when you’ve gotta get back into the workday groove. Two days never seem to be enough time off. Though my work offers lots of flexibility, I just CANNOT bring myself to work 9 to 10 hour days to get a reoccurring three-day weekend. Though it sounds tempting, it’s actually really draining (I’ve done it before and I didn’t love it).
Since I know how much of an interruption Monday can be, I like to surround myself with positive vibes so I can roll back into the grind with my game face ON! Lately, I’ve been obsessed with getting my “Shine” On– it helps out A LOT! If you’re not familiar with Shine, it’s an App that I’m head over heels in love with. A few weeks back, I shared how helpful it is on my IG stories and since this is where I share all that I love, I knew then that I’d have to share my feelings about Shine here as well because it’s that freaking awesome! If you’re one for self-reflection and meditation then darling… Shine will get you all the way together. Especially when you need that Monday pick-me-upper. It’s basically an app that encourages mindfulness, daily, via weekday text messages, and mediation tools.
It’s a huge motivation and so convenient and timely. In addition to the texts and the plethora of guided modern mediations, the Shine App triples as a Gratitude & Self help journal as well. Like, whhhhaaaaaa? How elfin’ cool! After each text, you have the opportunity to “Check-In” and digitally journal/document what you’re grateful for. It also has a built-in accountability system that challenges you to do something for YOU. As a multi-tasking full-time roller, this is a game-changer as it reminds me to slow-down and get centered
I knew y’all would appreciate this as much as I do, so I took a few screens shots so y’all could check it out, being that it’s Monday and all, I figured you may need this App now!
Here’s a Snapshot of the Shine Text Messages (from when I signed up…)

Here’s a Snapshot of one of my Check-in’s after I completed the mediation:
So yeah, that’s it. How cool, right? Now you see why I’m so hooked. Lol! You can get the app here if you like it. I hope you have a great day.
Remember to walk into your day with purpose and be intentional about how you invest your time. Now, go on and have a bomb-diggity day, witcho cute self
