Today’s assignment: 🎧🎶🤗

Go listen to the song that makes you feel the most alive. The windows-down song. The scream-in-the-car song. The “everything might actually be okay” song.

Then ask yourself: 💭 What feeling does this song bring up for me? 💭 Why does this song matter?

Now tell us, what’s your happy song? 🎶

Pause for a second & think of a moment you wish you could relive, even just for a moment. 💛

A sunset with friends.
A really good laugh.
A moment you felt proud.
A tiny ordinary memory that somehow felt magical.

That’s past savoring- revisiting positive moments on purpose instead of letting our brains spiral into stress.

Sometimes joy isn’t about creating new moments, it’s remembering the ones we already lived. ✨

What might you notice if the noise got quieter?

Positive psychology reminds us that well-being isn’t always about adding more, sometimes it’s about removing distractions.

An hour offline.
An afternoon outside.
A weekend without constant notifications.

You might discover:
💛 more presence
🧠 more mental space
🌱 more energy for things that actually refill you

Tiny challenge:
Pick ONE moment today to unplug.

This Friday, look for something that inspires you! Inspiration doesn’t have to be as grand as you may believe, it’s happening around you every day. So tell us in the comments: What inspired you today? ☀️🎆🍀

CAPE made a splash a couple weeks ago at the OPI Summer Institute held in Bozeman on the Montana State University campus! We had several successful presentations and workshops, including a keynote presentation on wellbeing by our very own Dr. John Sommers-Flanagan! Congrats to everyone for their hard work. ⭐️

Share with us your experience of finding and examining three good things in the comments. Or, better yet, tell us what your three good things were! Active observation often leads to passively noticing more good things around us. 📝⭐️☁️
