OH wow wow wow…doctors and nurses are some of my favorite people. My daughter has had chronic illness since the age of 2 so we spend a lot of time with nurses and doctors. How encouraging your class blackboards are. You are right nurses do save lives and they make such a difference in their patients experience. We’ve been so blessed to always find just the right doctor and or course I believe we draw the nurses we need or vice versa. Makes me smile just remembering all of them. They made such a huge difference in my daughter’s life that she went to school to be a nurse too. Yay! I’m going to visit around your blog a little! So happy you came over to see me! Have a super day! ~ღ~
Reading your note made me smile big time! Thank you for sharing about your daughter and your own experience with health professionals. You give me one more reason to put my heart & soul into all that I do. 📚♥️
How will I thrive today? I will keep calm… keep calm… keep calm… 🙂
No matter what happens on the outside – calm is one deep breath away. #Thriving 🌷
A great visual Dr Dinardo!
I think I’ll opt for being positive. After some hard work on myself last year, it’s beginning to be my default switch now. But I’m sure there are a few extras in your list that I’ll be checking off.
Thank you, a lovely post 🌹🌟
Most excellent choice Di!
Positivity helps us all thrive.
Good vibes are contagious.☀️
They really are, Dr Dinardo. I’m delving again into affirmations, the power of positive thinking etc and really loving it as a spiritual journey as well as understanding the pure physiology of stress and negative thinking.
I hope people ‘catch’ my vibes.
Thank you for your lovely reply 💐

I went outside.. It was a lovely ‘spring’ day and unusually warm.. perfect for relaxing in here in Manchester, UK.. Have a fabulous weekend! x
Outside is the best place to thrive! Enjoy your weekend too! The weather sounds beautiful. 🌷
It’s a lovely time of year to get outside when the weather allows.. with the blossom blooming to remind us of ‘new beginnings’… xx
Andrea, just looking at all these colorful reminders made me SMILE!
OK, today I’m going to:
1. Have fun
2. Breathe
3. Enjoy life
4. Give someone a HUG (starting with a virtual one for you)
Love, and blessings – Debbie
And you just made me smile! Thanks for the virtual hug Debbie & for all your good vibes. 🌺
I’m going to ‘enjoy life’. Can’t do that, unless one does all the others. Oh, and ‘go outside’, as eagles calling from outside my window remind me!
Just reading what you’re up to today makes me thrive!
Enjoy the outdoors! Eagles always show us the way. 🦅
Wow, Rebecca – you have eagles outside your window? Love this. ~Debbie 🙂
Great checklist Andrea. The article was good.
Thanks for the feedback! I enjoyed the article too.
Wow! That’s called attitude…we always have many choices, we just need to pick one that suits us the most! Great list. I am saving this image for future 🙂
I love hearing that the “thriving list” grabbed you. Attitude changes everything. We just need a “brief reminder” that we are one choice away from Powerless => Empowered. ☀️
Absolutely!
It’s a day of research and writing! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful reminder for the morning ❤️
Happy Writing & Research Mirissa!
Excited to see what’s next for you.💡
Great choices! Thanks Andrea.
Thanks Brad! Hope you have a chance to take some great photos outdoors today! Thriving at its’ best. 🌿
No, but good idea.
I’m waiting and listening for the light to be shed on where to take the next step. Breathe is a good one for this… and also the smiley face… the inner smile.
Sandy, you have described the perfect combination of thriving & grace. Waiting with a smile & listening with a deep breath. May your next step arise sooner than you expect. 🌺
It’s a rainy Friday so I’m going to take it easy!
Rainy days & coziness. My favourite! ☔️ 💙
I do like this: I’m going to be ambitious today and try to go for all those choices [!]
That is a very good ‘Thriving Checklist’, too. 🙂
Not surprised that you’re setting the bar high Buffy! May your day be filled with stress relief, sunshine, and good vibes. ☀️
🙂 🙂
Here’s wishing us both good luck in our respective endeavours, Dr Andrea! You’re most kind. 🙂
