Learning Discussion: Thanksgiving and Gratitude


Listen Later

25 min. Pierre and Maureen reflect on Thanksgiving and gratitude, how it changes a person's brain and perspective allowing life to be savored.

Maureen comments on the positive feelings created when a person experiences gratitude from someone else for their actions. This according to Andrew Huberman.

Pierre comments on his weekly gratitude practice led by Xerxes Whitney, during Tuesday evening during guided meditation sessions.

This Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to reflect on gratefulness. Whether times are difficult or terrific, remember we are here now. We are able to experience life. An ability to experience the present moment can be the root of gratefulness when we strip away wants, desires.

We get to be here, now, with ALL the catastrophe of life-- the good and bad, the competing narratives, the questions about what it all means.

SAVOR Life! You get to be here now!

Enjoy our unique national holiday of Thanksgiving.
