About this episode

Jonathan Prescott discusses the practice of deep gratitude and its various layers during his visit to the Guemes Island Community Church.

Jonathan Prescott talks about practicing deep gratitude during his visit to the Guemes Island Community Church. He uses Zen stories to show how we can be grateful not only for getting what we want, but also for noticing the unnoticed, and for getting what we don't want. The deepest layer of gratitude is when we learn to be grateful not just for 'things' but for our relationship to life as it is.
