Did you know that if you Google «Gratitude» there are over half a billion results?
So it seems like there are enough pieces of information about the benefits and impact it can have on your life, but it doesn’t help how wonderfully informed you are about any habit, if you don’t know how to start, how to adapt it to your life and why it even matters!
And that’s what this class is all about, the ins and out of making this powerful mindset a solid habit in your brain in an easy quick way, so it can support you to enjoy your life more, notice what's working, staying present and open to solutions and fun, and it can even impact your physical wellbeing, relationships and overall happiness! 
Sounds pretty great, huh? 
If we haven't met before, I’m Elise, a performer, teacher and a double certified life coach, specializing in integrative change work and transformational embodiment, which is a very fancy way of saying I'm really good at helping people change their lives and becoming more of who they want to be.
Gratitude has been a habit of mine for the past 15 years and with both my experience AND the science behind why it works so well, I'm really excited to share it all with you. A version of this practice has been with me through huge changes and so many different periods of my life, and keeping the threshold low to find joy is one of my main approaches to most of life. Bring self compassion and curiosity along and let’s go!
What happens in class ?
<ul>
<li>I'll teach you everything you need to start a positivity book (or your version of that, so many options!) matching the easy "how" with the powerful "why"</li>
<li>I will share with you a whole pile of the tactics and mindset shifts I've learned over the years of my practice changing and evolving, according to my needs, so you can do the same</li>
<li>You will learn about your brain, including normal human functions like negativity bias and generalization, that helps with acceptance and understanding when trying something new</li>
<li>You'll know how perfectionism tries to trip you up and common obstacles to look out for</li>
<li>You will learn how to tell your brain «filter» (reticular activating system) what is important to you</li>
<li>You will get started with your very first documented gratitude!</li>
<li>After this class you will be able to keep adapting and adjusting your gratitude habit when life happens and keep making it easy to come back to!</li>
</ul>
Is this class for me?
Oh yes friend! This class is suitable for anyone, if you have never done any journaling or mindset habit shifts, and if you already HAVE tried a gratitude practice and it hasn’t stuck, with this class I aim to give you some fresh insights, new ideas and perspectiver and a LOT of permission to "do it wrong". No matter your language, your age, your work, your circumstances, this can work for you. Tweaking and changing it to what works for you is key, which you will get a bunch of examples of how to do throughout our time together.  EXTRA DOWNLOAD: PDF Printable Gratitude sheet (for one week of easy practice with some prompts to get you started*) and three versions of a screensaver with questions to keep reminding you to notice your life. 
Lets stay in touch:
Come hang out over on Instagram @elise.aabakken for reminders, non-sense and joy, or listen to my podcast, «Unreasonably happy», available on Spotify and Apple, for... the same thing!
If you have any questions and something feels sticky through this, I'd love it if you reached out here or on Instagram, or you can send me an email at hello@eliseaabakkenstudios.com
