Common Sense Living

“Once you're uplifted, you uplift others, and everyone feels better.” —Ann LeMaster

Welcome back to another season of the Common Sense Living podcast! We're excited to kick off Season 2 with an episode focused on cultivating happiness, forgiveness, and gratitude.

Learning to maintain a positive outlook, even in less than ideal times, can be profoundly impactful. This timely reminder shows that each day offers opportunities to find meaning and appreciate life's blessings, regardless of outward circumstances. By making the choice to focus on positives and uplift others, we can strengthen our own resilience to face future challenges from a place of inner peace, hope, and optimism.

In this episode, Ann discusses various topics related to happiness, forgiveness, gratitude, and resilience. She shares an inspiring true story about the kindness of humanity seen from the experience of a young girl with cancer who sold her lamb at an auction. Ann also talks about the importance of forgiveness, especially forgiving oneself, managing negative thoughts, the power of meditation, and phrases parents can share with their children to help them become more successful and confident.
