Do you ever get negative thoughts floating around in your head? Just a few? Chances are you and I are plagued by negative thoughts all day, every day. In this month's episode we do a deep dive with Jennifer Jill Schwirzer to find out how you can escape the trap of negativity and embrace positivity. It all begins with growing with gratitude. Gratitude is your vaccine to keeping negativity in check. We do this by getting super practical and discussing:
1. The FAR technique (Finding, Arguing with, and Replacing your negative thought with something real and truthful);
2. Understanding how life is never going to be perfect and realising that gratitude grows in the midst of imperfection and challenges;
3. Doing three kinds of stretches: gratitude, social, and self-care.
