AU PLAISIR DE SE RÉJOUIR ENSEMBLE !

Several studies show that gratitude is one of the emotions that brings the most pleasant sensations for human beings.

In addition to increasing neural connections in the brain (therefore a healthier brain), developing gratitude makes us truly happy.

In this conference, we will reflect on several reasons to rejoice in the small daily joys.

Of course, we all experience difficult trials and we must not deny them, but occasionally, focusing our attention on what is beautiful and marveling at the splendor of the universe brings us enormous benefit.

LOOKING FORWARD TO REJOICING TOGETHER!
