The time has come! You are invited to my first LIVE online event on Insight Timer: A Dynamic Practice of Gratitude, tomorrow, November 24 at 2pm ET.
There are certain perennial themes that tend to emerge during the U.S. holiday season – conflicted familial relationships, unease with the contradictions embedded in the genesis of Thanksgiving, loneliness, anxiety, depression. A dose of gratitude can soothe and uplift and lighten your energetic load during difficult moments, and take you even higher when you’re feeling good.
What makes this practice dynamic? There are gratitude exercises that involve creating affirmations and mantras that you repeat frequently (and I’ll do other Lives highlighting those practices). The method of gratitude-based self-inquiry that I’m sharing tomorrow is a powerful paradigm-shifting practice that trains you to live from an ongoing awareness of your own abundant and expansive nature.
You can access the free event on a computer desktop, or you can download the app for free. And if you are inspired to support my work on Insight Timer, you can make a financial contribution directly through the website or app during the event!
