GRATEFUL MEDITATION If you’re a beginner in gratitude meditation, you should start with something simple. The goal is to give praise to certain things in your life or your environment. For starters, it can be something like the warmth of sunlight on your skin, the comfort of your bed, or the sound of nature in your nearby proximity. Take a comfortable position in a calming and pleasant spot (outside or inside); Pick one thing you’re grateful for and just notice it; Allow that thing to penetrate your experience; As gratitude arises, let it fill your mind and heart with warmth; Now you can take your meditation to the next level: think about someone you encountered today who has been supportive or pleasant to you; Think about how you’ve benefited from that experience; Once again, allow gratitude into your system and just be with it; You can continue enhancing your meditation further as long as you like; When you feel ready, exit the meditation.
