Gratitude is more than a holiday idea. It creates measurable changes in the brain and body that support calm, resilience, and deeper rest. This post explores the neuroscience behind gratitude, how it activates the body’s rest response, and simple ways to bring embodied appreciation into daily life. A free Gratitude as Medicine meditation is included for the season.

Rest is no longer a luxury—it’s essential. In this post, I explore how Yoga Nidra is evolving alongside modern science, and why the fusion of sound, stillness, and neuroscience is creating a new era of deep, embodied healing.
