FOR YOUTH OF COLOR: Gratitude Chat

Youth of Color

This group is for anyone who identifies as a Person Of Color (POC). We welcome everyone, but if you are not a POC, please consider giving more space to the POC and respect their voices.

Gratitude is the practice of being thankful or greatful. We can show gratitude to people who do knid things for us by saying "Thank you", and returning that same kindness. We can show gratitude to the planet by doing our best not to be wasteful. And we can show gratitude to ourselves by taking care of our body and being patient with our mind and heart. 

Join some of the staff from Hugh Lane Wellness in a conversation about gratitude. What it is, what it feels like to give and recieve, and how a regular practice of gratitude can radically shift the ways we experience the world.
