Think about the things you take for granted, the things you overlook. What simple, everyday thing makes your life easier that you hardly even think about? Be grateful for it. 

Some of my most profound and emotional experiences while meditating have been when I was actively practicing gratitude. Thinking of everything I could possibly be grateful for: past, present, and future. I say thank you for hardships of the past that have taught me lessons, I say thank you for the things and people in my life at this moment, I say thank you for the blessings I will eventually receive. Most importantly I say thank you for the health and happiness of those around me.

Sometimes it can be hard to think of the simple things we should be grateful for, so if you are feeling stuck, I invite you to use this list as a starting guide, starting at the earth star chakra, all the way up to the crown star chakra.
