In Chris's new book, Full Breath of Gratitude, Chris has developed a journal for reclaiming one's passion and purpose through an internal daily practice of gratitude.  Making space for gratitude is by no means a quick-fix, self-help, fly-by-night tool.  As readers contemplate gratitude, they will need to consider what obstructions are keeping them from making changes in their lives.  Obstruction comes from the Latin' obstruere, which means to block up from a movement of air.

   The first part of the book looks at nine obstacles to a life based in gratitude.  Many of us are hard-wired to resist the possibility of change.  Even when the books offer prescriptions which are as simple as self-discipline or straightforward suggestions of a different way to look at life, we rebel at the idea of change even when the suggestions are well within our capabilities.   When we consider some of the inner paradigm shifts that could occur, suddenly, there are often obstacles or obstructions that could come up when you consider a new breath in your gratitude.

The second part of the book is a 30-day gratitude journal that offers tools and prompts to assist people with an internal exploration into a new life perspective of abundance.  The Full Breath of Gratitude explores nine obstructions that people encounter when considering a life based on gratitude.
