Living in Gratitude: Younger Podcast

Recently, I was interviewed about the power of gratitude by Dr. Robyn Benson on Younger: The A.R.T. and Science of Youthful Aging podcast. The episode is called “Creating a Life of Joy Through Gratitude.”

I share how my gratitude journey began on a walk with my grandmother.

Since then, gratitude has been a grounding place for me, a way of life that I’ve chosen. Gratitude is available to everyone.

There is a lot of power in practicing gratitude, proven by over forty scientific studies, including those by Dr. Robert Emmons. Feeling and showing appreciation positively impacts our mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing.

And, the more often we chose to see life through a lens of gratitude, the more benefits we gain, and the more it becomes part of who we are on a daily basis.

To begin a gratitude practice:

Set an intention: write it down
Keep a gratitude journal and write in it daily
Express and show your appreciation to family, friends, and all those you encounter

To learn more about gratitude, I hope you’ll listen to my talk with Dr. Robyn Benson.
