Ordinary Thanks: a gratitude meditation
Call to mind, one at a time, a few ordinary things and people that supported you today, and rest with each briefly. Timed text cues appear on screen, with optional device narration.
Before you begin
Sit comfortably with the hands resting in the lap. After reading a cue, you may close your eyes and let one small thing come to mind, without searching hard for it.
How it opens
Settle into your seat and take a few slower breaths. Let the shoulders drop.
