Thanksgiving Gratitude

With Thanksgiving around the corner, we would like to reflect with you on gratitude. We all have something, in fact many things that we might be thankful for. Even in the most humbling and difficult moments of our lives, we can be grateful for the body that gives us life, for the air that is available for us to breathe, for the kindness of a stranger who paused to support us.

So, gratitude can start with the little things, the things we may take for granted. When we open our hearts to give thanks to the universe for what we do have, we grow and will transform ourselves into beings with possibilities and openness for new experiences and ways to appreciate the wonders of this incredible life we get to live. 

I'd like to share with you the link for My Stroke of Insight, the 2008 TED talk by Jill Bolte Taylor, PhD, a neuroscientist who suffered a stroke that separated her left brain from communicating with her right brain. Her life was forever changed, and I hope that her new found excitement for appreciating her life will inspire you, too.
