Unleashing the Power of Gratitude

Gratitude can improve relationships, help us cope with everyday stress, and increase our ability to feel more loving and forgiving.  Research shows that this amazing virtue can also bring happiness, reduce anxiety and depression, and help us to sleep better. In this interactive presentation you will hear about what gratitude can do for you, including specific and detailed steps to incorporate more gratitude in your life.
