Ep 154: Intrinsic Raditude Is The Attitude

Start Your Transformation Now As you read the headline you probably thought, “What…what the heck is intrinsic ratitude?” Right? Totally understandable and “ratitude” is my word for ‘radical gratitude’ and intrinsic is what’s deep inside of you and inherent to your BEing. When I say intrinsic to your being, I mean things like your ability to see, smell, taste, feel, and even your ability for your heart to beat and for you to breathe. Oprah has said, “Gratitude is the attitude” and many of us have heard that before but how many of us truly live that? How many of us embody it? How many of us understand that to the core of our being? When we do, it changes everything in us and around us, and when we live it in our daily lives they radically transform. In this episode, I talk about my journey to finding “intrinsic ratitude” in my life. And, I assure you, it has been a journey and all of us can do it if we commit just 5 minutes per day to having intrinsic ratitude. The great thing about ratitude is that it’s literally an avenue to all that you want in life. It’s free and yet most of us overlook it in our lives or we’re tepidly and mildly grateful but we’re not really embodying it. Let me ask you, do you take time during your days being immensely grateful for all that you have? I mean genuinely grateful, not perfunctory gratitude. I mean instead of just saying you’re grateful because you’re “supposed to” can you feel it in your bones, do you embody it. Do you savor your gratitude? You’re not fully aware and alive until you can reach this place in yourself and all else is just being externally influenced. All else is not being fully present in life and not being fully immersed in life. When we start immersing in life we start infusing with life. And, when we infuse it, it’s as if we are co habituating and living in communion with all of life…and that is power. In this episode I discuss: [7:04] How having gratitude will change your life [13:57] How once you are living in gratitude the Universe will start reflecting that back [18:55] Having gratitude for your breath, your heartbeat [23:15] An exercise in being grateful for your hands Transformational Takeaway: What if you woke up today with everything you were genuinely and intrinsically grateful yesterday?
