What happens when resentment creeps into your relationships, even those that seem unbreakable? In this episode of 'All In The Mind,' listeners are introduced to Dr. Carrie Howells, who has spent decades researching gratitude as a potential antidote to resentment. Through engaging anecdotes, such as the story of Olympic athlete Jocelyn and her friend Alice, you'll learn how gratitude can transform resentment into understanding and healing.
Jocelyn's journey illustrates how resentment can hinder performance and personal growth, but gratitude can pave the way for reconciliation and improvement. Dr. Howells' research shows that gratitude isn't just about positive thinking; it's about recognising what you've received and being motivated to give back. This episode doesn't shy away from the challenges of practising gratitude, especially in relationships where resentment runs deep. With insights from Dr.
John Maloof, listeners gain an understanding of how gratitude can impact mental health, reducing depression and boosting resilience. The episode offers practical tips for incorporating gratitude into daily life, from writing gratitude letters to expressing appreciation for the little things. As Dr. Howells shares her personal journey of overcoming resentment towards her mother through gratitude, listeners are invited to reflect on their own relationships and the power of gratitude to mend them. So, what are you grateful for today?
