Wake Up Grateful: The Transformative Practice of Taking Nothing for Granted - Hardcover
“Kristi Nelson invites readers to join her on the path to feeling fully alive and grateful no matter what challenges life presents. Using her own affecting story of surviving Stage IV cancer as a framework, Nelson recounts how she learned to embrace uncertainty, fear, and vulnerability through gratitude practice. After an exploration of guiding principles, readers embark on the journey of cultivating their own grateful living practice…anchored in the states of consciousness necessary to lead a more grateful life: to be fully present, to see with fresh eyes, and to be open to ever-present possibility. The profound gift Nelson offers through her story and perspective is transformative, reconnecting readers with the joy of being alive.”
