Listen "30. Gratitude: Gimmick, Gift or Game-Changing?"
Episode Synopsis
Everybody’s doing it … it seems! Except the skeptics, the naysayers, to anything “woo woo” that popular culture embraces. Today I’m talking about gratitude … the practice of gratitude journaling to be precise. If you’re doing it—well, you know. If you’re skeptical—well, I get it. Whatever you think about the benefits—or not—of practicing gratitude, I’ve got the goods on how good it is for the transformation you’re seeking at midlife and beyond. Actually, at any age.Thanks: How the New Science of Gratitude Can Make You Happier by Robert A.
