Many of our listeners feel thankful for something in their lives: their families, close friendships, comfortable homes, good health. How many of us keep that gratitude to ourselves?
Hello, I'm your host Dr. Anthony Silard, and welcome to ReSocial—where we rediscover, reflect on and renew how we approach social relationships so we can develop Compassionate, Meaningful, Sustainable Relationships, or what we call CMSRs.
I’m joined today by Dr. Nick Epley, professor at the University of Chicago and author of the upcoming book A Little More Social. We’re talking about the choices that keep us more isolated than we need to be and why the connections we are most likely to avoid are the ones that would almost always reward us. I want to turn now to a specific form of reaching out that Nick’s research shows is both more powerful and more neglected than almost anything else we can do: expressing gratitude.
