Happy Gratitude Season

It's that time of year to take stock in all of our blessings and good fortune!! For some people, that is not the case because they are caught up in wanting the "perfect" Christmas. The perfect tree, meal, gift wrapped presents and party. Perfection is an illusion that gets so many of us caught up in a trap of not only appreciating what we've got, but wanting more. Practicing gratitude starts us on the right track to enjoy our blessings.

Brene Brown says it best "we are a nation hungry for more joy because we are starving from a lack of gratitude".The power of gratitude is about enjoying those ordinary moments rather than striving for extraordinary moments. Eckhart Tolle reminds us that “Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance".

Happy Holidays and please make every effort to be present in your lives and practice gratitude!!
