  • Here's the gratitude practice script:

    Hey there, welcome. I'm so glad you've carved out this moment for yourself today. [PAUSE]

    As we begin, I want to acknowledge something - I know January can feel long and sometimes a bit overwhelming. Maybe you're feeling the post-holiday quietness, or sensing the subtle weight of new year expectations. Whatever you're experiencing right now, this practice is a gentle invitation to pause and reconnect. [PAUSE]

    Let's start by finding a comfortable position. Whether you're sitting, standing, or lying down, allow your body to settle. Take a deep breath in through your nose... and out through your mouth. [PAUSE]

    Today's practice is about gratitude - but not in a forced or performative way. We're going to explore gratitude as a living, breathing experience. [PAUSE]

    Bring your awareness to your breath. Notice how each inhale feels like receiving a gift, each exhale like offering something back to the world. [PAUSE]

    I want you to imagine gratitude as a warm, golden light slowly spreading through your body. Starting at your heart center, let it gently radiate outward. [PAUSE]

    Now, without judgment, recall three small moments from recently that made you smile. Maybe it was a kind word from a stranger, the taste of your morning coffee, or how sunlight caught a window. These aren't grand gestures - they're the quiet miracles we often overlook. [PAUSE]

    For each moment, take a breath and whisper internally: "Thank you."

    First moment... [PAUSE]
    Second moment... [PAUSE]
    Third moment... [PAUSE]

    Feel how acknowledging these experiences creates a subtle shift in your inner landscape. Gratitude isn't about forcing positivity - it's about truly seeing the beauty that already exists. [PAUSE]

    As we close, I invite you to carry this gentle awareness with you. Today, notice three unexpected moments of grace. They're waiting to be discovered. [PAUSE]

    Breathe. Be kind to yourself. Thank you for practicing.
