We are quickly approaching the Thanksgiving Holiday, always the 4th Thursday in November. Most Americans celebrate gathering with either friends or family indulging in a large meal including turkey, stuffing, potatoes, squash, and pumpkin pie. Thanksgiving, the word itself means “an expression of gratitude”.
We might start thinking about what we are grateful for as the holiday approaches. This is a wonderful time to reflect on all the things we have in abundance (including the little things like clean water), the wonderful people we have in our lives (even the ones who challenge us from time to time), and who we have become (even if we aren’t exactly where we want to be yet).
Gratitude is the number one practice for creating a happy life. How about we start with the Thanksgiving Holiday to integrate a gratitude practice into our daily lives? Start and/or end your day with gratitude. Then, let’s just see how it changes YOU!
