For millennia, spiritual leaders and philosophers have known the importance of gratitude as a virtue, a moral emotion, and altruistic in nature. Today social scientists recognize the systemic cultivation of gratitude yields measurable psychological and physical benefits. This talk will share how these healing benefits will inspire the same for communities, institutions and the world.

She’s also conducting research with CQ University in Australia and Angelia Ruskin University in England, on gratitude interventions supporting resilience and stress management.
