“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues but the parent of all others.” – Marcus Tullius Cicero
The power of gratitude is no secret. When practiced regularly and paired with meditation, it can have tremendous physical and emotional benefits.
Gratitude has several meanings and connotations. In particular, there are three core elements: Grace, Graciousness, and gratefulness.
Nurturing gratitude, and all three senses of that word, as a daily, hourly, moment-to-moment habit can be transformative.
“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.” ― Melody Beattie
