On Gratitude

There is nothing
too small
or
too large,
that is not worthy
of your gratitude.
                                                                      -  Lilias Folan



A Gratitude Practice          Each evening before you fall asleep,
pause for a moment ...
and bring into your heart -
 3 things that you are grateful for.

Upon waking in the morning,
pause for a moment ...
and bring into your heart -
 3 things that you are grateful for.
.
Repeat as necessary, anytime.
No contraindications.
Only positive side effects.


Thank you Everyone!
for being here with us

Body for Being , Thank you!

From Christopher’s Namaste! CD for Young Yogis

--------------
Here's a fun one for children and for the child within:

For Omnivores and Vegetarians alike.....
'The Turkey Song' as was sung by Papa Leo Carbone
every Thanksgiving
I heard Mr. Turkey say,   "Gobble Gobble Gobble,
Soon Twill be Thanksgiving Day,   Gobble Gobble Gobble,
People say  that it’s great fun,
But I think that I shall run
and Hide until the Day is done , 
Gobble Gobble Gobble!”
