90. Embracing Gratitude: A Pathway to Healing and Connection

Welcome to Dismantling Diet Culture: F*ck Being Calladita

Welcome to another solo episode!

dive deep into the transformative power of gratitude. Gratitude is the quality of being thankful and appreciating the good things in our lives. At its core, it requires awareness, recognition, and acknowledgment. We cannot truly give gratitude if we’re in a negative state of mind or don’t see the blessings around us. It's not uncommon to think, “What the fuck am I grateful for? I'm struggling,” especially when life is difficult. But it's precisely during these tough times that practicing gratitude can offer the most profound shifts in our energy and mindset.

Gratitude can be as simple as waking up in the morning and thanking the creator, the ancestors, or the spirits for another day of life. It’s recognizing the small blessings, whether it’s the ability to breathe, having food and shelter, or feeling safe. Often, we take these basic things for granted.

Our offerings don’t have to be material; they can be simple actions like watering a plant, singing or slowing down to be more present. These small acts cultivate a mindful and harmonious relationship with the world around us.
