Cultivating Gratitude
an exclusive 10 part video series for members of Namaste Wellness
It is a scientific fact that gratitude is at the root of all positive emotion, that human emotions directly impact human experince, and that psychological and physical health are interdependent with emotional experiences. Emotions all lead to the production/regulation of endogenous hormones and neurotransmitters.
Simply put how we feel and think directly impacts not only our health/healing, but how we as a species (living beings) express ourselves on a biological level.
This video series was developed by Dr. Andrew DeGroat, ND as an accessible and practical resource for anyone looking to improve the quality of their lives.
