The Jewish Federation Connecting with Community series presents "The Practical Power of Gratitude...To Make Life a Little Easier!" with author and motivational speaker, Jerry Posner.

Posner suggests that "Clearly, life can be difficult and challenging."  Modern science suggests that a little extra focus on "the good stuff" can have significant positive results over time.

You're invited to join author, educator, "motivational entertainer" Jerry Posner for an inspiring practical fun hour.  You will earn how intentional gratitude practices, which Posner has named "grati-tools", can have a multitude of positive results; including increased happiness, decreased stress, improved relationships, and a more positive perspective.  According to Posner, "for a very small daily investment of time, the returns in well-being and balance can be almost miraculous..and for many, absolutely miraculous!"

This free program is part of the Federation’s Connecting With Community Series and will be followed by a kosher hot lunch. Lunch is a $2 suggested donation for adults over 60 years of age or $7 for all others. Advance reservations are required for lunch and can be made by calling (413) 442-2200 before 9 a.m. on the day of the program.
