The practice itself is where the power resides It’s how you feel when you’re thankful for something. Think right now about something that you’re thankful for. It can be small like the socks on your feet or it can be larger like the roof over your head, your job, your family or your life. Gratitude is also an awareness or recognition. When you express or feel gratitude, you’re acknowledging that there is good in your life, in you, in the world and all around you. Feeling grateful changes how you feel inside. It’s easy to let the negative thoughts, words, situations, events, and actions in the world take over your heart and mind. Many in society seem to focus on the negative. It’s on the news, in magazines and newspapers, and it may be the general tone of the conversations you encounter during the day. Yet, the simple emotion and expression of gratitude diminishes all of that negativity in a powerful way. Over the past ten to twenty years many disciplines have conducted studies on the impact of gratitude. What they’ve found is nothing short of amazing. People who practice gratitude have found: ➔ They’re happier. It increases feelings of optimism, joy, and satisfaction. ➔ Have less anxiety and depression. ➔ It’s good for your health. Studies have shown that a gratitude practice strengthens the immune system, lowers blood pressure, and reduces symptoms of illness. ➔ Get more sleep. ➔ Recover more quickly from challenges and even from traumatic events. ➔ Have stronger relationships. ➔ Stronger connections. People feel more connected to their community. Gratitude changes your perspective on the life that you’ve been given. When you have gratitude in your life you: ● Feel less victimized by others or by life. Blaming no longer exists. Rather than look at what you lost or what you don’t have, you’re able to reframe situations and move forward focusing on what you can do and what you have. ● Have a more open heart. Gratitude helps you become more compassionate and empathetic. You’ll be able to connect with people even if you don’t think you have much in common with them. It’s a more rewarding way to live. ● Glass half full approach. With gratitude you’ll be able to recognize and appreciate what you have rather than what you don’t. As you begin to become aware of what is good and positive in your life, what is good and positive will grow. Gratitude takes practice. Being grateful and shifting your mindset, thoughts, and beliefs isn’t an overnight process. It’d be wonderful if you could go to bed one night with the burdens of the world on your shoulders and awake the next day feeling light as a feather with no cares in the world. That doesn’t generally happen. Instead, you’ll notice a gradual shift over time. You’ll feel yourself being lighter, more appreciative, and happier. It’s call a gratitude practice for a reason…Gratitude, takes practice. Be patient with yourself and with the process.
