According to Oprah Winfrey, “If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more. If you look at what you don’t have in life, you’ll never have enough.”
It’s very difficult to feel fear or sadness while feeling grateful at the same time.
Practicing gratitude is one of the most widely recognized methods for improving one’s overall well-being. In 2007, Robert Emmons, professor of psychology at the University of California, began researching gratitude and found that expressing gratitude improves mental and physical well-being.
Being grateful also impacts the overall experience of happiness, and the effects tend to be long-lasting.
One way to practice this is to write down five things you are grateful for each day.
Or, if you really want to incorporate this practice into your life, you can create a gratitude journal.
Remember to include even the simplest things that you might take for granted, like the comfortable mattress you sleep on or breathing clean air.
As they say, “What you appreciate, Appreciates.”
Sometimes we just need to stop in the midst of it all.
Take a moment,
Take a breath & be grateful,
For no matter what’s going on in our life,
We’re still here,
We’re still breathing &
We still get another chance to get it right.
Acknowledge your blessings.
Thank God for your umpteen blessings.
Incorporate gratitude into your daily life & Stay blessed forever!
