NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME ...
to meditate, listen to a favorite song, watch some clouds, play with a child, go for a walk outside, do some yoga, take a few deep breaths, remember your favorite friend. or, sit with the pictures here for a few minutes. Your brain will thank you.
These activities nurture your neurotransmitters and provide a break from whatever stressors you have been immersing yourself in.
and don't watch the news.
Thanksgiving Day has so many special aspects that highlight how much we have to be grateful for. You get to pick your focus- family, friends, football, feast, foliage and so much more. It is easy to get swept up in the planning, or to feel sadness if something from the past is no more- Taking a few moments to get quiet, and focus on what is going right can turn that around.
