That&#8217;s where the practice of gratitude can make a major difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And one individual has dedicated his life\u2019s work to exploring and promoting this notion\u2014all in the form of art and nature. His name is <strong>Louie Schwartzberg<\/strong>, a master of visual storytelling and acclaimed filmmaker best known for his documentaries <em>Gratitude Revealed<\/em> and <em>Fantastic Fungi<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In an <a href=\"https:\/\/podcast.mindvalley.com\/the-power-of-mushrooms-and-gratitude-with-fantastic-fungis-louie-schwartzberg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">episode<\/a> of The Mindvalley Show with Vishen, Louie shares his unorthodox perspective on gratitude\u2014one that includes an unexpected connection: mushrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em><strong><em>Watch the full 50-minute interview:<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Ep #014: The Power of Mushrooms and Gratitude with Fantastic Fungi\u2019s Louie Schwartzberg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JlwFhTKOjFM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ep&nbsp;#014: The Power of Mushrooms and Gratitude with Fantastic Fungi\u2019s Louie Schwartzberg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-is-louie-schwartzberg\">Who is Louie Schwartzberg?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name \u201cLouie Schwartzberg\u201d may be linked to gratitude and mushrooms, but it\u2019s synonymous with breathtaking timelapse photography of nature. He\u2019s spent a good portion of his life capturing the unique blend of artistic vision and scientific curiosity.<\/p>\n\n\n<span class='bctt-click-to-tweet'><span class='bctt-ctt-text'><a href='https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?text=I%20love%20making%20films%20not%20only%20about%20the%20little%20things%20but%20also%20about%20unveiling%20the%20mystery%20%5Bof%5D%20%E2%80%98what%20is%20the%20foundation%20of%20life%3F%E2%80%99%20%E2%80%94%20%40LouieFilms&#038;related=mindvalley&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mindvalley.com%2Fblog%2Flouie-schwartzberg%2F&#038;via=mindvalley' target='_blank'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">I love making films not only about the little things but also about unveiling the mystery [of] \u2018what is the foundation of life?\u2019 \u2014 @LouieFilms <\/a><\/span><a href='https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?text=I%20love%20making%20films%20not%20only%20about%20the%20little%20things%20but%20also%20about%20unveiling%20the%20mystery%20%5Bof%5D%20%E2%80%98what%20is%20the%20foundation%20of%20life%3F%E2%80%99%20%E2%80%94%20%40LouieFilms&#038;related=mindvalley&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mindvalley.com%2Fblog%2Flouie-schwartzberg%2F&#038;via=mindvalley' target='_blank' class='bctt-ctt-btn'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Share on X<\/a><\/span>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His work isn\u2019t just about capturing awe-inspiring visuals\u2014it\u2019s about storytelling. Through his stunning cinematography, he weaves complex narratives of nature and life, shedding light on the intricate tapestry of connections that define our world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Louie\u2019s approach is deeply rooted in understanding nature\u2019s feminine aspect. \u201c<em>The real story of nature is more about the feminine<\/em>,\u201d he emphasizes. \u201c<em>It&#8217;s about relationships; it\u2019s about connection; it\u2019s about rebirth, regeneration, love, nurturing<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, it\u2019s these interactions that often go unnoticed. These are the moments of magic that we\u2019ve glazed over without a second thought\u2014the ones we take for granted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through Louie\u2019s lenses, however, these moments become a symphony of light and color. It\u2019s a testament to the unfathomable beauty that is nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, in his Netflix documentary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/my-en\/title\/81183477\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Fantastic<\/em><\/a><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/my-en\/title\/81183477\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Fungi<\/a><\/em>, Louie brings us into the amazing world of these little plants. His film shows us the power of mushrooms and how they can help heal us and the planet. And it\u2019s this mix of nature, art, and people that are at the heart of Louie\u2019s ideas about <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/gratitude\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gratitude<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Louie believes that when we start to notice the small details in nature around us, we start to feel more thankful. But it\u2019s more than just enjoying the beauty around us; being thankful can help us feel better, be more positive, and improve our mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-benefits-of-gratitude-according-to-science\">The benefits of gratitude, according to science<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gratitude isn\u2019t just a feeling; it\u2019s \u201c<em>the key to happiness<\/em>,\u201d according to <strong>Vishen<\/strong>, the founder of Mindvalley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is plenty of <a href=\"https:\/\/research.com\/education\/scientific-benefits-of-gratitude\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">research<\/a> that highlights the benefits, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lower blood pressure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Better sleep<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stronger immune system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Boost in confidence<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Higher levels of patience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More positivity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Able to \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/neeta-bhushan\/#:~:text=at%20once.%E2%80%9D-,The%20Bounce%20Factor,-To%20say%20Neeta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bounce back<\/a>\u201d faster<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Less focus on materialistic things<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improve relationships<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make better decisions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These, among others, can ultimately make you happier in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the thing is, Louie\u2019s work supports these scientific findings. But he goes even further.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He shows how a gratitude practice can change your life. And he does this in a surprising way\u2014with the world of mushrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-intersection-of-gratitude-mushrooms-and-mindfulness\">The intersection of gratitude, mushrooms, and mindfulness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gratitude? Mushrooms? Mindfulness? These three ideas together might seem like a strange connection, much like art and neurology, when they\u2019re applied to marketing strategies. But dive deeper into Louie\u2019s work, and you\u2019ll find an amazing tale about how important mushrooms are to the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thing is, <em>Fantastic Fungi<\/em> isn\u2019t just about different kinds of fungi or even the psychedelic benefits you can get from ingesting them. Rather, it\u2019s about realizing how much mushrooms do for us and the world, making these overlooked little guys something to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/things-to-be-grateful-for\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">be grateful for<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>Mushrooms break down organic matter, which creates soil<\/em>,\u201d he explains. \u201c<em>And without soil, there\u2019d be no plants. So without fungi, there\u2019d be no life on our planet<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What\u2019s more, <a href=\"https:\/\/asm.org\/Articles\/2023\/February\/Psilocybin-and-Mental-Health-The-Magic-in-the-Mush\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">science<\/a> is starting to show that certain mushrooms\u2014psilocybin, for instance\u2014can have a big impact on mental health. They might even help with problems like depression and anxiety.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, there are the mushrooms that help make the world go \u2018round. Then there\u2019s the gratitude for it and the things it helps produce.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But what about mindfulness? Well, it\u2019s simply that mindfulness is experiencing all of life in all its fullness\u2014the smell of a flower, the taste of a strawberry, or even the quiet calm of a forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These three ideas\u2014thankfulness, the wonder of nature, and being in the moment\u2014are a reminder that we\u2019re all part of the world. And that helps us feel like we belong and, ultimately, impacts our overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cr4V7swPixV\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Be grateful<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As mentioned, Louie is a huge advocate for the practice of gratitude (after all, he made a <a href=\"https:\/\/watch.louiechannel.tv\/programs\/gratituderevealed-mindbodyspirit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">film<\/a> about it).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>It\u2019s so easy to fall into a practice of gratitude<\/em>,\u201d he says. \u201c<em>It stops the negative thinking that we all get, I think, sucked into, especially in today\u2019s world<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What\u2019s more, it has a therapeutic effect. The ability to sort through thoughts and emotions reduces the odds of heart disease, as one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apa.org\/pubs\/journals\/releases\/scp-0000050.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a> from the University of San Diego found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Louie Schwartzber\u2019s tip:<\/strong> There are plenty of ways to do this practice, from keeping a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/gratitude-jar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gratitude jar<\/a> to simply saying it out loud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One that Louie highlights is a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/gratitude-journal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gratitude journal<\/a>\u2014a daily activity that encourages you to write down three things you\u2019re grateful for. The power of this practice lies in its simplicity. By forcing you to stop and think of what you\u2019re thankful for, it shifts your attention from burdens to blessings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-be-mindful\">2. Be mindful<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>Hack your present with mindfulness<\/em>,\u201d Vishen has been known to say. And with good reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For one, it\u2019s one way of appreciating the small, intricate details you may miss as you go about your day. (And this ties back to the practice of gratitude.)<br><br>Two, it\u2019s about having sensory experiences\u2014see, hear, touch, smell, and taste. With mindfulness, you take the time to see the trees sway, listen to the rustle of leaves, feel the earth with <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/how-to-ground-yourself\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">grounding<\/a>, smell the freshly cut grass, and taste the fruits of nature\u2019s labor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And third, by consciously pausing to immerse yourself in what\u2019s going on around you, you can elevate your emotional health. It minimizes the mental habit of revisiting past sorrows or worrying about future uncertainties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Louie Schwartzber\u2019s tip:<\/strong> If you\u2019re open to it (and if it\u2019s available legally), check what Louie mentions about psychedelic experiences. Despite its controversial reputation, he explains that \u201c<em>it\u2019s a portal into feeling the energy that\u2019s all around us that we normally don\u2019t see<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It allows you to have a present-focused awareness. And by slowing down and having that sensory experience, you\u2019ll be able to foster a sense of wonder and gratitude for the natural world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-be-with-nature\">3. Be with nature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mother Earth is called that for a reason. As any mother does, it nurtures us and provides us with the sustenance we need to thrive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And as <a href=\"https:\/\/e360.yale.edu\/features\/ecopsychology-how-immersion-in-nature-benefits-your-health#:~:text=These%20studies%20have%20shown%20that,reduce%20anxiety%2C%20and%20improve%20mood.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">research<\/a> shows, doing things with Her is an antidote for stress. It goes back to having a sensory experience\u2014seeing, listening, feeling, smelling, and tasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>When I discovered nature, I found my greatest teacher<\/em>,\u201d Louie says. \u201c<em>She taught me everything about lighting composition, texture rhythms, also a portal into universal rhythms that connect with the deepest part of [my] soul<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taking his cue, being in nature can remind you of your interconnectedness with the world. <em>That <\/em>can help you with mindfulness. And <em>that<\/em> can bolster your sense of gratitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And as you now know, <em>that<\/em>, as a result, can really do wonders for your mind, body, and spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Louie Schwartzber\u2019s tip:<\/strong> Going for a hike, nurturing a garden, or watching a documentary like <em>Fantastic Fungi<\/em>\u2014there are so many ways to engage with nature. Such interactions with what Mother Earth has to offer can help you appreciate its beauty and complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Louie says, \u201c<em>Nature\u2019s imagery is medicine<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-take-the-next-step\">Take the next step<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The story of Louie Schwartzberg, gratitude, and mushrooms is many things\u2014a journey of exploration and connection, uncovering the profound beauty in the everyday, and acknowledging our interconnectedness with the world around us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet it\u2019s also a reminder to pause, appreciate, and express gratitude for the wonders that surround us. Everything from the smallest mushroom to the vast expanse of the night sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, the next time you encounter a mushroom during a walk, remember Louie\u2019s message: Don\u2019t simply dismiss it as a strange, fungal organism. Instead, see it as an emblem of nature\u2019s wonder, a prompt to be grateful and mindful, and possibly a gateway to deeper emotional well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So how do you get there?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c<em>You have to start by being really clear inside of yourself<\/em>,\u201d Louie explains. \u201c<em>Psychedelics enable you to do that. Music enables you to do that. Beautiful imagery enables you to do that. There are many portals into the Divine.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One other way to the Divine? Through personal growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And if you\u2019re interested in learning more about how you can level up in life, <a href=\"https:\/\/home.mindvalley.com\/quiz?utm_source=blog_inline_link&amp;utm_campaign=quiz&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;otag=blog_quiz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>unlock your free Mindvalley access<\/strong><\/a>.
