EPISODE 13: GRATITUDE

Say THANK YOU.

We are grateful this week to record in a fresh-air setting, surrounded by trees and water and our kids. 

We hope you can find a moment or 2 in your day to find gratitude in these tumultuous and incendiary times. Try out the ''square breath'' if you need to just breathe. Breathe in for a count of 1-2-3-4...hold for a count of 1-2-3-4...breathe out for a count of 1-2-3-4... and hold for a count of 1-2-3-4. Thanks to Samudra Studio's Sarah for showing me that very helpful breath!

This week's charity: LOVE CATS? BIG CATS? Check out bigcatrescue.org - Carole Baskin's big cat sanctuary in Florida.

We want to hear from you! Email us: wednesdayblazernation@gmail.com #wednesdayblazernation
