Listen "72. Stop, Get Quiet"

Episode Synopsis

This Thanksgiving, can we think about the concept of gratitude beyond lists or feelings? Let's consider gratitude as a practice that begins in our own bodies, in our choice to stop, our choice to quiet our minds. When we learn to stop and get quiet so we can really look, our graittude becomes more than a feeling. It becomes something we carry into our ordinary lives.  Find the Ted Talk from Benedictine monk David Stendl-Rast here.
