Gathering Gold

Resistance to Gratitude


Listen Later

We all know that practicing gratitude is good for us: we've read news articles about groundbreaking research on the benefits of gratitude, purchased gratitude journals, maybe started incorporating gratitude practices into family dinners or even work meetings. So why is it still sometimes so hard to really feel and and experience gratitude in an authentic and enriching way? And what are some pathways to an open heart when our gratitude "motor" is cold?

That's what we're unpacking in today's episode.

...And P.S.: We are so grateful for all of you, dear listeners!
