Goodness Gracious Me – The Documentary

 

Sharing Wisdom

 

phil filming san francisco 0ptimisedThe practice of gratitude is so simple and yet so life changing, it is our desire to share this wisdom with as many people as possible.

Documentaries are an effective and wonderful way to share wisdom so we are in the midst of making one!

Our film, currently on hold, has interviews with some of the world leaders and inspirational world changers in the fields of gratitude research, brain science, psychology, happiness and the spiritual life.

There will also be personal stories from those who have learned to live life more richly through the practice of gratitude.  Those sharing their wisdom come from all walks and experiences including housewives, bloggers, actors, musicians, students, teachers and authors.

 

The Adventure So Far:

Over the past few years we’ve interviewed many people. At one stage we spent 7 weeks in the USA and Canada interviewing a few of those extraordinary people.  This was a journey beyond anything we had imagined…   it ended up being more like a spiritual pilgrimage than a film shoot.  The people we met were wonderful and it was a great privilege to speak with each of them. Check out just some of the people we have talked to so far:

 

The Interviews

 

At the moment we are in the final interview phase and thought you might like to meet a few of the wonderful people we are interviewing..  as we have been doing the interviews we are feeling incredibly privileged to be able to hear, first hand, some of discoveries and wisdom these people are sharing.

 

Every one of these people, and others not yet listed, give their time with great generosity and are taking a leap of faith by trusting us.

Thank you!
