ONLINE: Gratitude, Thermostat Not Thermometer


Details
Join us for a short meetup on the practice of gratitude.
This week, as we head into Thanksgiving, let's elevate our happiness quotient by evoking gratitude vs waiting for it to show up.
I'll admit it, gratitude is not always easy for me - although I have a great deal to be thankful for. Buddhist practice admonishes us to be grateful for ALL things. How the heck do you do that?
Let's talk about it.
This is a Wednesday night meeting for the Secular Buddhism / Meditation Meetup. We are meeting ONLINE.
