Thriving As We Age

In the midst of all the upheaval, anxiety, and unrest of the past year, we have learned that true joy comes from inside and can be nurtured even in the most trying of times. One approach to make sure you get out of bed on the right side of the bed every morning is to start your day with thankfulness in your heart. Gratitude is one of the most powerful emotions because it is both a feeling and an action: you actively consider the things for which you are grateful, which makes you feel grateful.

Click here to watch Kathie and Natalie share the best transformative practices to cultivate joy.
