Another benefit of having a gratitude practice is that it helps you highlight the positive things, experiences and moments that you may normally overlook.

Think of the beauty you may miss while driving on a fall day. Sharing morning coffee with a loved one. The kisses your fuzzy baby gives you, or the warmth of your comforter on a cold night.

When we are naturally grateful, we notice those small things. So try it - start your gratitude practice today!!

And join us this week - lots to be thankful for in our warm & cozy studio!!
