How you WIN (Free AQUAMANTRA) by being Grateful this Thanksgiving

Thanks-giving is my favorite holiday, a day to remind myself of all the things I'm grateful for and the opportunity to evoke that high vibrational frequency in others as well. Most of us pack up our belongings, hop on transportation and travel to a location to join the other counter-parts of our family during this 4 day weekend. Some people gather to play games, to talk and catch up with the year's stories and other to just be present with their family. Then predictably we cook huge and delicious meals all day just to sit down and gorge for a quick 45 minutes or so. Then the coma settles in, our buts plop down on the couch and either pass out – watch TV or clean up, whichever is most rewarding. Years and years go by and the tradition stays the same. Sure new people stop in, locations may change but the sameness is always there. Many years ago, I insisted that before the grace we hold hands and go around the room saying what we were grateful for that year, and it became so rewarding that now we do it every year and no one can even remember that this hasn't been a tradition forever. This little moment in time, sparks the presence in everyone's soul while they wait in anticipation for their turn to say what their grateful for. Sure some people might not elaborate and share simple comments like they are grateful the food or the company, but the beauty surfaces when those of us dip into the soul and say what we are truly grateful for like surviving this year or for the opportunity to know their parent that just passed away. If done with sincerity, with each spoken token of gratitude a welling of magical energy shows up and with everyone contributing through the vulnerability of their honesty, a close and intimate connection with each of the people at the table magnifies. Usually by the time we wrap up one or everyone is crying, through joy, through gratitude and the space that has generated such honesty and loving gratitude, its amazingly sweet. Then someone chokes up and says, "okay time to eat" and so the chow down begins, but that piece of time will be etched in the memory of that holiday forever, the contribution that everyone at that table made to and for each other. What a beautiful gift to experience and this year AQUAMANTRA wants you to experience it!

Last year, I created I AM GRATEFUL water dedicated to just this experience. In partnership with the CA Southern Pacific Region of Whole Foods Market, we launched AQUAMANTRA's
I AM GRATEFUL water, hoping to inspire such a tradition at Thanks-GIVING. This particular water did excellent in stores and we inspired people to bring it to their host or hostess' dinner as the gift that would keep on giving. Now this year, we are featured this week of Thanks-GIVING in both Whole Foods Market and CA/NV Albertsons Markets with our new 100% Biodegradable and 100% Recyclable new ENSO BOTTLES. If you don't live in the West Coast you can buy AQUAMANTRA online at www.thirstmonger.com and get FREE Shipping anywhere in the United States if you buy 3 cases or more.

I personally invite families everywhere to partake in AQUAMANTRA's GRATEFUL EXPRESSION EXPERIENCE CONTEST this Thanks-GIVING… let me explain. We encourage you to buy a bottle of I AM GRATEFUL for everyone who will be at the table for dinner ( this includes children). You can decorate your bottles with ribbon or go even further by adding a request to the bottle. Last year, my little cousin Mallory and I found quotes about Gratitude and printed them on sheets of paper. Then we used different color construction paper and cut them out to look like leaves. We glued the quote to the leaf and then put orange glitter on everyone. We sliced the top of the leaf and used ribbon to fasten it to the top of the bottle. When it came time to eat, Mallory asked everyone to go around the room and read their quote out-loud and tell us all what they were grateful for. It was fun to watch each person read their quote and tell us the truth of what makes them grateful, even the little kids. This Expression is one way to get a little bit closer the DNA known as your family and experience them in a new light, even for a few moments in time.

The best part is we want to hear your experience and see what your table looks like! Send us your pictures with a paragraph about your experience. Our team at AQUAMANTRA will pick our TOP 25 favorites, who will receive a FREE CASE OF AQUAMANTRA plus an Organic Jute Bag for you and a friend, shipped directly to your front door.
