What exactly is hope? Are you born with it or can you cultivate it? The ladies of The Wisdom Coalition https://www.thewisdomcoalition.com/ sit down with Dr. Dan Tomasulo, a counseling psychologist, writer, and the Academic Director at the Spirituality Mind Body Institute at Columbia University https://spiritualitymindbody.tc.columbia.edu/ to talk about his most recent book, Learned Hopefulness, which Deepak Chopra calls, “The perfect recipe for fulfillment, joy, peace, and expansion of awareness.” In this episode, Dr Tomasulo says, “Anything that repeats in the mind is worth paying attention to.” He helps us understand the thinking traps that prevent us from being hopeful. In part two which will be released next week, he outlines exactly how to cultivate hope. Listeners of this podcast can get the first two chapters of the book for free and some other goodies by texting “hopeful” to 18332992796.
