Steven

Grateful for awareness

As I was being guided through this meditation, something was said in a way that triggered a troubling emotion for me. What I am grateful for is that I was aware of it and was able to set it aside momentarily and then deal with it objectively at a proper time.

Pat

Gratitude Meditation

I am thankful for many things in my life but, I don’t always show my gratitude. I want to learn how to show my gratitude daily and without extra effort.

Family

To always remember that family, love and happiness comes first no matter what. Never lose perspective.

Joyce

Gratitude Meditation

My mind wants to keep lookout for my heart center. I focus on my center and have to keep telling my thoughts it’s OK to let go and come back to the center. Nice to know my mind ‘has my back’. Namaste

Perla

Gratitude Meditation

My sense of gratitude makes me feel the light within. I suppose I place a lot of importance on this; attempting to make sure strangers and more intimate people in my life know I appreciate them and hoping they reciprocate that gratitude either to me or pay it forward. As long as there's a genuine smile in the departure from either party, u feel that same light.

Paula

Mindfulness for Wellbeing

I meditated about gratefulness of the family that I have. I pray and hope for everyone to enjoy each other’s company and communications. Wishing that I can help to fill each members heart full of love and gratitude.

Adrianne

Opening up to gratitude

I found myself thinking of things that I would never in the past have associated with gratitude so I found this a really rewarding meditation.

Brianne

Sense of Warmth

It was wonderful to be still & feel a sense of warmth when thinking of things I am grateful for

Charlotte

Gratitude

Sometimes we take our luxuries in life for granted. Instead of being sad I have learned to focus on all that I have to be grateful for. My health, my family, my friends. These amazing things we have in life greatly outweigh all of the negative.

Nicole

Pause and reflection

Within 3 minutes of sitting with intent to breathe and think about something happy, it feels as if some weight has been lifted off my shoulders. The weight of my day has been heavy. It feels good to have stopped for a few minutes.

Judy

Gratefulness

Filled with thanks to be in out of the cold. Thinking about all those who are not in a warm place.
