I have spent a lifetime being grateful. That's why I am so happy to share the contents of this month's O, The Oprah Magazine, as we celebrate the art of gratitude.

Thanksgiving is one of the best times to share what you know to be true—and to do it with great style and great food. It's a chance to make memories with family and friends.

This season don't get lost in making the perfect meal or become overwhelmed with all the folks in your house. Use this time to center yourself in a lasting sense of gratitude. Accept with an open heart whatever is going on in your life right now. And whenever you can't think of something to be grateful for, remember your breath. With each breath you take, you can say, "I am still here." Make each day a holiday of thankfulness—and give yourself the gift of gratitude.
