🔹 What You'll Learn:

Thanksgiving is a time to cultivate a gratitude practice, and mindfulness can help us focus on the positive aspects of our lives. During family gatherings, compassion is key, especially when dealing with tensions. Practicing gratitude can transform our relationships with others, helping us approach differences with empathy and understanding. It's important to invite everyone to the table, particularly those who may feel left out, and to acknowledge the efforts of others. These efforts will help foster a deeper sense of gratitude.
