As November settles in with its cool, comforting calm, many of us feel naturally drawn to thoughts of gratitude. It’s a time of gathering, of sharing, and of reflecting on the abundance in our lives. We often focus on the gratitude we feel for others – family, friends, loved ones – and how they bring us joy, support, and laughter. But what if, in the spirit of this season, we also turned that gratitude inward?
Giving thanks to ourselves is a form of self-love that’s often overlooked. In the same way we express appreciation for those we cherish, we can also honor the ways we’ve shown up for ourselves. The moments we’ve been resilient, the ways we’ve cared for our bodies, and the courage it’s taken to grow through life’s challenges. Reiki offers a gentle reminder to slow down, to reconnect with our inner selves, and to give our energy centers the same love and healing we freely offer to others.
In a Reiki session, we cultivate a deep sense of self-compassion as we hold space for our energy to flow and balance. This compassionate awareness aligns us with the understanding that we are worthy of receiving as much as we give. As you breathe into the warmth of this month, invite yourself to reflect: What are you grateful for within yourself? Perhaps it’s the strength you’ve built or the way you’ve learned to prioritize your own peace.
If you’d like to experience this inner gratitude firsthand, I’m offering 30-minute distance Reiki sessions to help you align with self-love and healing this season. Click here to schedule a session.
This November, as we gather and give thanks, let’s also celebrate ourselves. Embrace the love and gratitude within, honoring the journey you’re on and the light you share with the world. After all, as we nurture our own well-being, we become better able to share our gratitude and presence with others.
Wishing you a warm, nurturing season of gratitude and love. With heartfelt appreciation,
Renee
