Episode Highlights:

(06:44) I would recommend that our listeners think ahead about what it is that you might want to splurge on. If you decide that you're going to go for an all out feast, that is a perfectly acceptable choice. If you decide that you're going to mostly do protein and vegetables, that is another perfectly good choice. If you decide that you're going to do a Thanksgiving meal the same way you would do any other meal, and you're not going to have any splurges, that's also a perfectly acceptable choice.

(09:02) Remember to nourish your soul; Thanksgiving is about appreciation, so Thanksgiving morning I would recommend, if you have a meditation practice you could do this after your meditation, just sit down for about 15 minutes and write down all the things in your life that you appreciate. Think about the people in your life that you appreciate and why you appreciate them. This is a really profound practice and it's really going to get your day started off with clarity and joy.

(13:26) You want to ask yourself: “Who am I bringing to the table this Thanksgiving? Is it someone who's happy and appreciative? Or is it someone who's stressed out and strung out and worried and anxious?”. Do whatever you can ahead of time to make sure that the person you're bringing to the table is the happy appreciative one and you will have a joyful day no matter what's going on around you.
