Ever find yourself caught in the whirlwind of consumerism, forgetting about the natural world that nurtures us? What if embracing an age-old practice could help you cultivate a profound sense of gratitude and deepen your connection to the Earth?

This episode unravels the transformative practice of expressing thanks to the natural world, as inspired by Robin Wall Kimmerer's book Braiding Sweetgrass. We delve into the Thanksgiving Address, an Indigenous ritual of reciting a poem of gratitude before important gatherings, and its potential to transform our daily lives. Our conversation is not just about gratitude; it’s about embracing a way of life that centers the heart and connects us to the present moment.

To further deepen our exploration, we incorporate the a pranayam for perspetive and emotional balance. This alternate nostril breathing technique has the potential to help get you out of overthinking, and to quiet the mind.

Finally, we share a heartfelt testimonial from a client about the profound impact of spiritual counseling and hypnotherapy. We extend an invitation for you to reach out to Ramptin for an introductory session or a Stress-Busting Session and discover the benefits yourself. So, tune in, embrace the wisdom of Indigenous teachings, and embark on a journey towards a more grateful and centered life.
