About Mindful Gratitude: 

Mindful Gratitude workshops and retreats are powerful experiential learning opportunities designed to build strength, mental health, and resilience.. The process blends three compelling research-based wellness principals – mindfulness, gratitude, and journaling – providing participants with opportunities to practice skills in each key area as they retreat, reflect, and recharge in a relaxed and supportive environment. 

Participants receive one copy of the book, Mindful Gratitude: Practicing the Art of Appreciation, one Journal, and one Notecard. These tools allow participants to practice skills long after the workshop ends, giving the session an extended shelf life and deeper impact.
