As this series carries us through October and toward Thanksgiving, gratitude will be woven throughout our practice. Drawing inspiration from pratipaksha bhavana, the yogic practice of cultivating an opposing, beneficial perspective when troubling thoughts arise, we’ll explore how gratitude can gently shift our attention toward what nourishes and supports us. Research suggests that gratitude practices can support emotional well-being, increase life satisfaction, and ease symptoms of anxiety and depression. Through movement, breath, meditation, and simple daily reflections, we’ll cultivate appreciation for the body, the gift of breath, and the blessings within everyday life.
