This is your 2 minute reset to connect with a feeling of gratitude.

Begin by gently placing one hand over the center of your chest.

Settle in and feel the simple warmth of your hand on your body.

Now,

Take a slow,

Full breath in and as you exhale,

Let go of any tension.

Just for this moment,

There is nothing to do but feel.

With your next breath in,

Bring to mind one thing,

Big or small,

That you are genuinely grateful for.

It can be something simple like a cup of coffee or something larger like a loved one.

Just allow one thing to come to mind.

As you hold that thought,

Imagine that gratitude as a soft,

Warm glow right beneath your hand.

Feel it growing brighter with each inhale like a gentle inner sun.

With each breath out,

Feel this warmth gently expanding.

Let it spread from your chest,

Through your shoulders,

Down your arm,

And all the way to your fingertips.

Feel it move down your torso,

Through your hips,

Your legs,

And into your toes.

This warm light now fills your entire body and even begins to radiate out into the space around you.

Rest in this feeling of fullness for a moment.

When you're ready,

Take a deeper breath in,

Anchoring this feeling of gratitude within you,

And as you exhale,

Gently open your eyes.

You can carry this warmth forward with you into the rest of your day,

Knowing that gratitude has the power to transform the way you experience the world.
