    In this episode, we talk about a couple of resources that Colin and Jodi use to practice gratitude, and we want to ensure we link over to those for anyone interested. We do not get anything in return for promoting these, but we wanted to ensure you had the links. Colin - 5 Minute Journal (https://www.intelligentchange.com) They also have an amazing newsletter that is free and has some great resources and articles. Jodi: Daylio Mood Tracker (https://daylio.net) And for those who may not be aware of what doom scrolling is, here is the definition. Doomscrolling and doomsurfing are new terms referring to the tendency to continue to surf or scroll through bad news, even though that news is saddening, disheartening, or depressing. Many people are finding themselves reading continuously bad news about COVID-19 without the ability to stop or step back.
