Happiness, Joy and Gratitude

Ever think about what it would take to make you really happy? To feel a deep sense of joy?

Some people say they need a certain amount of money.

Others focus on lifestyle, travel, a stress-free job, or free time.

Many want more time with family and friends.

This uplifting video (7:14) shows the surprising role that GRATITUDE plays in achieving real, deeply satisfying happiness.



Yet there’s a dark side to joy. Author and researcher Brene’ Brown states that the most terrifying, difficult emotion that we experience as humans is…joy.

How can this be? Would you ever think of associating “joy” with “terror”?

Watch this powerful exchange between Oprah Winfrey and Brene’ Brown to find out why Dr. Brown makes such a disconcerting statement, and yet prescribes GRATITUDE as the solution.
