Episode 26: The Practice of Gratitude

This episode is about the practice of gratitude, which has been shown to improve physiological and psychological health. What's even better in that improvements can be seen with only 5 minutes a week.

In this episode, I reference The Huberman Lab Podcast Episode 47 The Science of Gratitude & How to Build a Gratitude Practice.
