Dr. Paul and His team at The Turtle Healing Band Clinic NW Wishes You a Great Holiday Weekend!

Whether you celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday or not, it is a great practice to reflect in gratitude. When we stop focusing on what we do not have and start being grateful for what we do have, it does something in us. There is a change in our perspective of what is important and we can find it easier to have a genuine response of thankfulness.  Our stress is decreased as our constant strive for the "do not haves" changes to fullness in the "haves". 

For some, this is inconceivable as this season brings about memories of hurt and pain.  Others may be walking through a current tragedy which has brought many feelings, none of which are gratitude or happiness. We have all been there in some way or another. So, from one person who has suffered to another, try not to allow pain, anger, hurt or any other negative feeling to rob you of the joy that can come from taking time to reflect in gratitude. 

So, we encourage you this weekend to meditate on thankfulness, allowing yourself to be freed from the pursuit of constant desire, pain, anger, or hurt.  Even if it may only be for a short time. This weekend, let's be still in the here and now of gratitude. 

With Love & Gratitude,
​The THBCNW Team
