Adding a gratitude practice to your daily routine can bring about a multitude of benefits for overall well-being. Research has shown that incorporating gratitude into your life can lead to improved mental and physical health, enhanced relationships, and increased happiness.

Sometimes life feels like we might drown in the overwhelm. Sometimes it seems like things are muddy and stuck. That is when we can turn to nature and take lessons from the creek.

We aren't always bright and chipper when that alarm blares us awake in the morning.  Tune in when you need to ease your way into the morning gently.

Sometimes it's hard to transition from the business of the day into the quietness of rest.  Tune in when you need to settle yourself into a more restful state so you can sleep.

Maybe you are rushing between meetings or classes.  Perhaps you are heading into a stressful situation or you're already in one.  Whatever the case, you find yourself needing a moment to pause.
