Welcome to Mindful Gratitude
It’s easy to feel happy, grateful and blessed when things are going well, but much more challenging to find the gratitude and the blessing in the heartbreak, disappointment, or struggle.
Join us each week for a short mindfulness and gratitude practice to help build resilience, and feel more peace, tranquillity, and joy.
