Michele Vismaya Rubin is a best-selling author, speaker, educator, entrepreneur, and founder of Living in GRATITUDE Today. As a Miami high school teacher, Vismaya brought the practice of gratitude to her students and encouraged them to find things to be grateful for every day (it was actually part of their homework!) Every student said their lives were now better and that their grades improved. When she retired, after 20 years of teaching, Vismaya founded her GRATITUDE Movement. “Gratitude opens the door for more happiness, joy, productivity, and stronger connections with the people around us.” Vismaya is on a mission to share the benefits of a Gratitude Practice -- how to start one, and most importantly, how to maintain one during difficult times. She teaches gratitude at live events and live webinars all over the U.S. Her website is Visit LivingInGratitudeToday.com.
