Ep 6 - Does Gratitude Lead to Joy or Does Joy Lead to Gratitude? (Attitude with Gratitude)

I am reading a book right now by Melody Beattie, “Making Miracles in 40 Days.”  that has a unique perspective on gratitude. How do you find gratitude in your life when things are not going well? How do we make space for gratitude even in the darkest of times?  It is a short practice that I will be walking through over the next couple of weeks and I invite you to join me. It’s not about not acknowledging things that are hard in your life. It is actually the opposite. It's about giving space for those emotions and TRULY feeling them. Sometimes when we block our emotions it blocks us from our goals because we are carrying negative energy. I also share with you a perspective on this topic from one of my favorite teachers, Brene Brown. Brene shines a new light on the link between joy and gratitude that you do not want to miss. Please share your gratitude in our community!
