The Impact of Living Gratefully

What happens when we choose to live gratefully—moment by moment, no matter our circumstances? In this uplifting video from grateful.org, people from all walks of life—young and old, of many backgrounds and identities—share how the simple yet powerful practice of grateful living has transformed their lives. Their stories remind us that gratitude is not just a fleeting feeling, but a way of seeing, a way of being that brings light to even the darkest moments. Inspired by the vision of Br. David Steindl-Rast, a spiritual brother of our own beloved founder, Swami Satchidananda, this moving piece invites us all to pause, appreciate, and awaken to the sacred gift of each day.
