Who is this script for?

Ideal for therapists, teachers, group facilitators, or anyone seeking a heartwarming solo practice, this script uses inclusive language and flexible pacing.

Phase 1: Settling Into Grateful Awareness

Begin by creating sacred space for appreciation. Through gentle breath awareness and intention-setting, participants settle into openness for gratitude to naturally arise. No forcing—just breathing space for whatever wants to be acknowledged.

Phase 2: Cultivating Grateful Heart

Guide appreciation for the body, relationships, and life's simple gifts. This heart-opening section invites specific gratitude practices—thanking each part of the body, remembering acts of kindness, and recognizing everyday miracles we often take for granted.

Phase 3: Integration & Grateful Living

Close with affirmations and intention-setting for carrying gratitude forward. Participants consider how to weave appreciation into daily life, ending with gentle reorientation and optional journaling prompts for deeper reflection.
