The intervention is your hope and optimism, your thoughts.

I think overwhelm rules over many of us. And I hear most of my friends responding to me as well with similar statements. And if we have even more than a few minutes in the produce aisle, I’ll hear more of that panicky feeling that lies underneath my friends’ voices.

How to shift your perspective from expectation to APPRECIATION.

Accepting the truth and moving into the world of possibility.

What happens in your body when you move away from hope and toward despair or hopelessness?

What do you do when you don't have enough compassion? Where do you turn?

Does your workplace need a culture change? Gratitude may just be the fairy dust you need. It works in magical ways to make employees feel more satisfied, fulfilled and even more productive! Especially if you are a leader at work, listen up! Almost any work environment can use an attitude of gratitude to boost its health! 

Transform your day into something bigger than it seems, every day, with your food. Have gratitude for what enters your body, for all of those who contributed to making it, to the elements of the universe that supported it from the wind to the sun and rain. We are all interconnected and each time we eat is an opportunity to celebrate that. 

In our fast-paced days, we are often rushing through our tasks to get to the next one while juggling incoming calls or emails. In this way, we may be missing much of what is happening right in front of our eyes. This fast paced life often does not serve us, and we need to counterbalance it if we are to care for ourselves well. We NEED ritual to slow us down, to make us remember what is truly meaningful in our lives.

We are set up as humans to look for the negative. When you are getting ready for a day that feels challenging, what do you think about? The ways it will be hard to get through, or the ways you will find meaning in your day? I have come to believe it fundamentally changes our biochemistry to be grateful.
