She gives us tips on how to let go of resentment, embrace forgiveness, and show up with a heart full of gratitude, even when life feels hard. Tune in and take a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate all the good in our lives. Wishing you a holiday full of love, gratitude, and yummy food! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: The Gratitude Reset. Shift your focus from what’s wrong to what’s right by practicing daily gratitude. This small but powerful practice can reset your mindset and bring more peace into your day. Letting Go of Resentment. Resentment holds us back from fully embracing life’s joys. Candice encourages releasing bitterness by practicing forgiveness—both for others and yourself—to find true emotional freedom. Finding Beauty in the Imperfections. Inspired by the Japanese practice of Kintsugi, our flaws and challenges are what make us unique and beautiful. Embracing them allows us to see life through a lens of resilience and self-love. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront OUAI: https://theouai.com/ use promo code: HEALSQUAD for 15% off Nanit: https://www.nanit.com/ use promo code: DREAM20 for 20% off your first order Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Candice Kumai’s Resources Instagram https://www.instagram.com/candicekumai/?hl=en Website https://candicekumai.com/ Book https://www.amazon.com/dp/0062669850/?ref=exp_influencer-0c39ba4e_lv_dp_vv_d ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
