Grab a drink of your choice (I've got my coffee) and join us for a live meditation with fellow Graduate College of Social Work colleague, Clinton! We start out our discussion on gratitude. We are awfully good at focusing on the negatives around us..what didn't go right, what is worrying us, did my words come across ok? But those pockets of good things sprinkled throughout our days? We are sometimes all too quick to move past them. 

By actively slowing down, and expressing gratitude for the good things in our life, from relationships to the joys of a cup of coffee, we can feel our mood shift. Research shows that it not only aids in reducing depressive symptoms, but it increases our positive moods as well. 

The art of slowing down in our fast-paced world can be hard. Yet, research shows that we are more productive, and feel happier when we do. Join us for our conversation and this meditation, and begin to take action toward gratitude. Sending love and light your way as you do.
