Gratitude

This meditation helped me reframe the small things in life that seem to bring about so much stress. In all reality, I have much to be grateful for. The mind too often focuses on all of the small annoyances, things we must do and things we believe we are lacking. It is helpful through both meditation and journaling to keep in mind that our focus needs to shift from these distorted thoughts to the many things in our lives we already have and take for granted or have created through more conscious living.

I don't think meditating works as well for me when I'm on my period.

My symptoms seem to create more distraction than I'm capable of dealing with.

Feeling loved and loving

I remember that I am not alone, I have many loved ones to be thankful for and abundance in my life that is beyond measure.

I’m grateful for the ability to be grateful

After several years of not really feeling anything, it’s better to feel even the least desirable emotions than nothing at all.

A Realization

I never thought to feel grateful for my hardships, for my ill body. But after doing this and thinking about my body, I realize that i may not be grateful that it’s happening to me but i’m grateful for the people who are helping me get better. I’m not sure if that’s where she wanted me to go with that but that’s what i took out of it. This changed my way of thinking about the things in the world, there’s so much to be grateful for.

grateful

I learned that simply just taking time away from your day to be grateful, can result in a lighter feeling inside and take away the current stress your under.

Thankfulness is something I leaned

One of the few times I’ve learned to actually feel thankful.

Gratitude always

I think that a majority of us live in a world where things are fast-paced. Everyone at point A wants to rush to point Z; everyone who has one thing wants something else. I️ do think that we barely take a second to pause, and reflect on what is in our “present” that we should express gratitude towards. We do not always need to rush to point Z, we do not need to have a “want want want” mentality. I think sometimes we are so blinded by our surroundings hat we forget sometimes the things we truly need, the things that matter, and the things that should hold the highest gratitude in our hearts are right within reach.

More time to think about your blessings

Taking time to speak about joys and blessings is so much better than wasting your time complaining about your struggles. Sometimes our minds are focused on things that we should be grumpy about, we forget there are lots of joys to spend energy on. Instead of releasing hate, just appreciate. ☺️

Gratitude

Always a nice way to end a day, to sit and mindfully reflect on those things that are grateful for in our lives.

Gratitude even in the midst of chaos

Even though I can get caught up and passionate about world and current affairs, I have so much to be thankful for and best to focus on this when feeling overwhelmed.

Gratitude is Something We Forget

I learned that I get so busy and worried that I forget to give thanks, so I need to slow down and take time to do so.

Celibate

I’m at best and at peace with Chastity and the faith and love earned through my obedience to my virtues has only grown me and my loved ones into greater strength

Gratitude

I learned that I have a lot to be grateful for but it’s easy to get bogged down in the mindset of the world: being superficially too busy for oneself. I hope to break free of this mentality.

Gratitude

I need to look and be grateful for all that is around me. As well as all that is within me.

Everyday

Being grateful doesn’t always mean a particular person or action. Look to the simple aspects of our lives, nature, being safe, our shelter, spirituality. These are often overlooked as sources of gratitude to deep into our hearts.

Gratitude

Learning to have a safe place in my own mind and grateful for it.

Safe place

Creating a safe place in my mind and being grateful to have loved ones near, loved ones doesn’t have to mean blood relatives.

Gratitude

I should be thankful to everyone and all institutions that lead me to this present moment.

Slow

I have to let myself slow down. It’s a gift from me. I don’t have anything else to say.

Calmed

This session has calmed my nerves and put my stress and anxiety on hold

Strange

I felt grateful for my safety, but sad realizing that I don’t feel close to anyone.

:)

i forget to be grateful for even the smallest things in life. God has given us so much!

Little things

Sometimes the littlest things take up the most room in your heart. I really enjoyed this meditation, specifically when she had us smile and think about all our loved ones, whether here, or passed on. Regardless of where they are, they are still able to reverberate love 💕

Old lessons

1. Don’t sweat the small stuff. 2. This to shall pass. 3. Be grateful for this moment.

Gratitude

This meditation didn’t speak to me as much as others have but it’s always nice to unwind.

3-25

I keep two gratitude journals, but adding this practice is another reminder of how gratitude can help me focus on the positives in my life regardless of what else is going on at that time.

Gratitude Meditation

I’m grateful for the bond that I have with my partner & friends. I’m grateful for the relationships I’ve had with people that are no longer with us.

Family and friends

This made me grateful for my friends and family which is something I take for granted sometimes

gratitude

All these wonderful sessions for parents and friends were worthwhile but this one really made a most positive impact on me. Yesterday I talked to my dad on the phone to wish him a happy 87th birthday. He explained that Jane his wife had to drive to her other house because the water heater had leaked. We got into a conversation about being grateful for all the things we take for granted... After I listened to this session I realized that this includes unpleasant things that we would never, under normal circumstances, consider being grateful for. Like a hot water heater leaking. Or critical government services which keep all of us healthy and safe being suspended because of an obtuse campaign slogan. Or the realization that our country is being endangered by a incompetent puppet who, more than anything else, fears the truth. These unpleasant, temporary realities will all be resolved but in the mean time they are very good teachers who remind us of just how very fortunate we all are for the many things we take for granted. So, instead of hatred and division, we should all embrace and be grateful for the important lessons which are unfolding before our eyes each and every day.

Gratitude

Being grateful for my body in general I think is something we all miss everyday. It works so hard and keeps us alive. Beautiful meditation

I felt...

I felt very very thankful and lucky for having a healthy body that other people might not have

Gratitude

Too many times, we focus on what we do not have. This meditation tells us to look at what we DO have and feel gratitude. Be thankful for the loved ones in your life. Be thankful for your body, as it has been a vessel for you to get through life. Be thankful that at this very moment, you are safe. As you think about gratitude, your heart space begins to expand and you begin to smile. Offer gratitude towards yourself and others. Have a wonderful day! ❤️🙏🏻😊

Gratitude beyond

Tried this session in Cherish’s recommendation this morning. Found it difficult to extend my feelings of gratitude beyond the walls of my own home. Life these says is pretty well contained within the walls of this house. Don't have too many ”real-life” friends. The couple of local ones are off busy with their own lives and families. The other, older friends are scattered across the country, and I rarely get to see or interact with them at all. My massive stroke really put the kibosh on my life, and interacting with my friends and such. 😢

Counting

I feel like this helps out also counting your blessings leaving your pants loving people like your friends loving to eat your favorite food ice cream and candy caring your self helping out others meditating and focusing your spirits guides taking one step at a time to honor your only safe practice on commitment to yourself in your helping loving protecting Spirits and always taking time out of your day to just sit back and enjoy your life one step at a time sometimes go slow. Your friend Teddy Plowallz with much love happy holidays to all.

Health

I learned that having your health bak is the most important thing to be grateful after been sick for so long . I tend to forget how grateful I should be- I had my life , I have my family especially my mother . Instead I long for things that I do not have and want to happen at the time that I expected. I’m healthy, stronger and more calm . Im grateful that learning to remember to breath

Stressed

This helped calm my mind. It turned a stressful morning into a better day.

Today I am grateful for

Today I am grateful for a ball up in support of my parents and my siblings. I am grateful that my siblings always been me laugh. And then the support of my friend Liz Jones it’s always there even when I drive her crazy I am grateful for the fact that many people reach out to me on a consistent basis. I am also eternally grateful for the 25 wonderful years I had my maternal grandparents and the joy my fathers relatives from Ireland bring me this includes my grandmother who worked her 90 next month I am grateful that all my aunts uncles and cousins put it up with my merciless sarcastic teething and then many people have seen me at my worst still continue to love me unconditionally. I am grateful for my body Which has made my life interesting and for the fact that I am safe enough to meditate I need to leave basis

Today I am grateful for part two

I am grateful that I am in no significant danger and then this meditation helped . Thank you all for reading this.me realize the importance of this fact. I am grateful for the folks on the Lara for putting this meditation together. I am grateful for community or not are who takes the time to read my post and post the bother I hope everyone is OK

Expanded Heart

Because it counters our minds natural inclination to focus on what is wrong and what is in lack, engaging in a gratitude practice is the best way to begin our day. Filled with thankfulness for what we do have, we naturally begin to see what is right and what is abundant in our lives. Breathing into my heart space, I am thankful that I am safe in this moment. Filled with peace, I expanded my heart to include the whole world. Focused on my body, I am thankful for this vessel that sails me through life. Expanding my heart, I am thankful for the natural world and all of its inhabitants. The insects, air, vegetation, birds and wildlife all help to sustain not only my life, but also the lives of others. This beautiful dance we engage in on a daily basis is truly something to be grateful for. Thinking of something I am thankful for in this moment, my computer came to mind for it allows me to connect with people from all over the world. Sensing this connection, my heart expanded. With my heart expanded, I am thankful for all the experiences I will encounter today! Namaste 🙏🏻❤️☮️

Gratitude

I couldn’t get into the place I needed to be for this meditation. Too much going.

This one was different

It felt really rushed and not serious as the others . It was meh to me

Busy morning

This meditation helped me stop and just take a breather and sit. It was very short tho, but helpful.

This was hard

I learned that I need to practice more self love and forgiveness.

Gratitude meditation

It felt great giving gratitude to some things I don't think about often enough. Thank you, Suzie. I really enjoyed this. Gratitude for my body, for being safe, for feeling my heart center expand.
