MM9 Why you might find gratitude hard & the hedonic treadmill
If you're someone that finds gratitude hard or as though you get a mind blank when it comes to crunch time, then this is for you. Also, if you haven’t really thought about how or why a practice of it might feature in your life, then you're also going to get a lot out of todays pod! We all know the benefits of gratitude so I'm not here to restate them, rather share my own personal challenges & break throughs with it. I dive into two reasons why our society has conditioned us to NOT be grateful, but disclaimer, once you hear these, it's up to you to undo the hard wired damage, and think with a grateful heart moving forwards!
I talk about the dissatisfaction loop and end on 4 easy tips on how you can start practicing gratefulness right now (and no you don't need to allocate 35 minutes everyday with your eyes closed, it's easier than you think)!
