Once the jubilation settles and we step down from Cloud 9, we know we have our letter writing practices to give us small doses of that same appreciative, celebratory, and supportive state.

If you haven't had a chance to write a letter for this prompt, why not take some time now to do so? If needed use the card below as inspiration.

Keep those good vibes flowing with our Appreciation Kits.
