It’s Memorial Day weekend and I always feel very pensive and grateful during this holiday. Â And I always feel a bit sad, too. Â I know a lot of us are excited to have an extra day off, but I am taking some time to reflect on the ultimate sacrifice many of our servicemen and women made to allow us the freedoms that we enjoy and take for granted, quite frankly. Â Freedom and safety are often part of my gratitude practice and more so this weekend.
I also would like to practice some mindfulness this weekend when I am socializing.  So often during holidays I eat things that deviate from what make me feel good and then I am annoyed with myself afterwards.  I’m going to try to make choices this weekend that won’t make me annoyed afterwards!
