Gratitude has been a practice of most religions and spiritual philosophies as well as Twelve
Step programs. Even Oprah has promoted it. Many people practice it daily, either with a
partner, texting 3, 5, or 10 gratitudes daily, or by themselves, writing them in a journal or just
noticing throughout the day. It truly changes your attitudes and your life. I highly recommend it.
One of the gratitudes that we can easily forget in this highly intellectual culture is our body. A friend recently sent me this e-mail and since I am all about the body, I share it here with you.
A tip. As you read through this, focus on the sensations in that part of your body. If it is tense,
breathe into it and send love and light to whatever is held there. If the sensations are pleasurable, ENJOY!
Sometimes you may feel like your body is beginning to creak and fail you on the outside, but do you ever stop to consider the incredible work that is taking place inside of it?
There is so much going on and everything fits together so well, that it’s almost impossible to comprehend it. This presentation will remind you that there are miracles going on inside your body every single day.
Hi Cherie, I trained with you and Dick in Chicago in the late 70’s. I have been in private practice for almost 40 years. SAT has been the mainstay in my work with individuals and groups. I still remember you saying that you used self hypnosis to get through graduate school. Getting ego out of the process has been the most valuable tool I learned from you. It enables me to work from an altered state of consciousness as I saw you do. Please include me in your list of people and therapists that lives were changed by your work. I have passed it on to so many others over the years. Thank you for saving my life and offering a way to have quality of life for so many.
