373: The power of Thanksgiving

“Thanksgiving is not a date in the calendar; something to celebrate or acknowledge once in the year. Thanksgiving is a state of being. Thanksgiving is an energy. Thanksgiving is a consciousness. Thanksgiving is a focus of intention"

Often in life, we tend to overlook the lessons hidden in both joy and struggle. In this special Thanksgiving episode of Soul Talk, I reflect on the deeper meaning of gratitude—not as a single-day celebration, but as a daily practice and state of being. Together, we’ll explore how giving thanks, even for life’s challenges and unmet desires. All of these can lead to profound spiritual growth and inner freedom.

I’ll share practical insights on how to cultivate unconditional gratitude that transcends circumstances, helping you trust in the universe’s higher plan even when life doesn’t go as expected. You’ll learn how to shift from ego-driven judgments of “good” or “bad” to a place of openness and curiosity, where life’s setbacks become stepping stones to greater blessings.

Tune in and discover the transformative power of gratitude to realign you with life’s flow. Deepen your connection to the present moment, and unlock the magic of trusting what is. This Thanksgiving embrace every part of your journey with love, trust, and thanks.

Watch how life unfolds with greater ease and joy.
