Grateful for the mindset shift that turned chores into peaceful rituals via /r/gratitude

Lately I’ve been trying something new: treating boring tasks like doing the dishes or answering emails as little moments of peace instead of things to rush through. I started imagining myself like a character in a quiet film, just existing calmly in the moment with some soft music in the background.

It might sound silly, but it's genuinely helped me slow down and appreciate the quiet parts of the day. Those tiny routines that used to feel draining now feel kind of grounding.

I’m grateful for that mindset shift. It’s made me see the everyday stuff in a new light. Anyone else have a little mental trick that helped you see something ordinary with more appreciation?
