PRACTICE
Gratitude reflection
Bring to mind a few specific things you're grateful for, and notice how they feel in the body.
HOW TO PRACTICE
- Sit quietly and take a few slow breaths.
- Bring to mind three specific things from the last day or two that you're grateful for.
- For each one, notice any warmth, ease, or lightness you feel in your body.
- If nothing comes to mind, it's okay - even noticing one small, ordinary thing counts.
- Close by taking one more slow breath before continuing your day.
Considerations
Works best when specific rather than general - 'my sister called me today' rather than 'my family'.
