1. Remember this mantra: Thanksgiving is a breath practice.
   
   Well it’s mostly about eating. And drinking wine. And sometimes fighting with your family. That’s why it helps to breathe. And unbutton your pants.
   

2. In case you feel like screaming at someone in the kitchen – like your Mom, your kids, or your Mom’s kids (aka your step siblings) – why not try some strength training instead?

   
   Here’s a full length series in video and PDF from yoga therapist extraordinaire Mary Richards. It’s from our Somatic Self Care podcast.
   

3. Or, maybe you just need to take a break. Savasana always help.
   
   Here’s a guided Restorative Savasana for spaciousness from Mama. She gets you started, and then you have some silence to experience the practice, and then she rings her bells.
   
   Remember resting for twenty minutes is a gift you give yourself, and the world, at the same time.
