Ad: Gratitude as Medicine | Women’s Health Week Online Workshop by Michelle Wollaston

We were all taught to say “thank you” as an act of politeness. A simple gesture. But what if gratitude is more than a courtesy? What if it’s a powerful spiritual practice — a way of rewiring how we experience life, healing us from the inside out?

For many women, especially during times of transition, loss, or emotional exhaustion, gratitude can feel impossible. How do you give thanks when you’re carrying the weight of broken relationships, hormonal shifts, aging parents, or your own fragile health? Too often, “just be grateful” sounds like denial. But true gratitude is not about pretending everything is fine — it’s about finding meaning in the mess, and strength in the struggle.

The deepest gratitude doesn’t appear in perfect moments. It arrives in the quiet after the storm — when you notice how far you’ve come, when you honour the boundary you once couldn’t hold, when grief itself reminds you of how deeply you loved. This kind of gratitude doesn’t sugarcoat reality; it reconnects us with self-respect, presence, and wholeness.

When we move beyond surface-level gratitude journals or “raise your vibe” lists, we step into something more transformative. Real gratitude is not performative — it’s integrative. It helps us embody alignment instead of chasing it. It allows us to reclaim our power in the middle of discomfort, not in spite of it.

That’s why, during Australia’s Women’s Health Week, I’m hosting a heartfelt online workshop — Gratitude as Medicine. This is a sacred space for women everywhere to explore how gratitude can become a daily ritual of healing, resilience, and renewal. You don’t need to be “healed” or have it all figured out. You only need a willingness to see your life through a new, more powerful lens.
