I always feel that this time of year is a good time for reflection, so I felt speaking about Gratitude and Appreciation was apt.Yet, 2020 has been a difficult year for many of us, so practising gratitude and appreciation can be tough.I imagine many of you are familiar with gratitude practices of some kind. Believe it or not, Gratitude practice and Appreciation practice are slightly different. In this weeks episode of Yoga Punx Unite LIVE, I share exactly what the differences are, when and why you'd practice each as well as finishing with a meditation practice to cultivate gratitude.The meditation practice is exclusive to the free YPU LIVE membership available via my online studio yogapunxunite.com/ypu-live if you'd like to do it, then make sure you sign up ❤️ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

If a friend, colleague or employer asks us to do something, commit to a task, we tend to do it without question (depending on the request of course!)However, committing to ourselves seems all the more difficult.In this episode, I share what personal power + commitment is, and why self-commitment is beneficial to all who we surround ourselves with.I also share ways in which you can start to easily commit to yourself and your wellbeing to discover the joy and avoid resentfulness.If you'd like to join these sessions live, then you can for FREE!
