Lori Hutson joins Suzanne to talk about how find something to be grateful for, no matter where we are in the world today. This topic is part of spiritual wellness, featured as part of the Vitality Revolution podcast series sponsored by Humana. Lori says, "Especially in these times we're living in now, we're just bombarded with the news cycle, and you can really go down rabbit holes, and you can really look for some things to get to depressed or down about. There are strategies to really live having an attitude of gratitude, to find something to be grateful for no matter where we are." Lori adds, "One of the best ways is just to get in the habit of looking for those things, and having a gratitude journal... You write what you're grateful for, what your intention is, and then what you're going to let go of. If you just get in that habit, the first thing is five things that you're grateful for. Sometimes it could be the same things you were grateful for yesterday, or it could be just the tiniest thing. And especially it you're going through a hard time, it could be that ou're grateful that you have a comfortable bed to sleep in, you know, the smallest things. Once you get your mind focused on that, then you start recognizing, and then it opens up to all these things that you just take for granted, or haven't noticed." Lori provides a list of tips, which includes being mindful of living in the moment. Also, going out and looking at things like you've never looked at them before.
