When you’re ready, settle into a comfortable place inyour body. Feel supported and relaxed. Enjoy a few deep breaths in and outthrough your nose as you settle in, surrendering to the support beneath you. Feelyour belly balloon and that expanse through front and back ribs as you breathein. Feel your belly pull softly in, your ribs returning to center as you fullybreathe out. Deep breath in. Deep breath out.Closing your eyes, bring to mind a person you are thankful for, living or passed. Bring tomind this person’s face, perhaps imagining the way they speak, their bodylanguage and unique mannerisms. Consider what it is about this person that youare thankful for. Perhaps remember the support, love, kind words, encouragement.Here, say to yourself, “I am thankful for [name that person]. I am thankful for. I amthankful for.”Now, gently blink open your eyes, and take a moment to journal about this person you are thankful for. You might use this time to write a gratitude note to deliver tothem later. Perhaps you list the attributes of this person, or recall a memoryand describe a moment where you felt or even expressed gratitude to them. Writedown the sensations in your body, emotions, thoughts that arrive as you consideryour gratitude for them. Whatever you choose to write about, position your bodyin a comfortable way for writing. Breathe.Feel free to pause here to continue writing. As you set aside your paper and pen, return to however you would like to position your body. Deep breath in. Deep breath out. Movethrough your day or into rest thankful for the people in your life. Thank youfor meditating with me. Peace.Written + Performed by: Jessica Haessly
