#174 Me, Petra, and Matt cannot possibly experience any negative emotions, because we run retreats and coach people, right? Wrong! During this amazingly emotional conversation between the three of us today, we focus on gratitude and its effects on all our lives.

We open up about the difficulties the three of us have faced, and still sometimes face every day and how you need to allow yourself to feel those emotions, before finding ways to shift the situation.

We also discuss the positive impact of practicing gratitude daily, what that means, and how you can make your own daily gratitude practice.

“All suffering comes from separation, and gratitude is the connection.”
