When we are grateful, we counteract the negative things we are facing. It helps us change our focus, and gives us a new perspective.
When we practice being thankful and develop the habit, it helps us realize and acknowledge that what we have right now is enough.
Another thing that helps me to be grateful, is knowing and acknowledging I would be nothing without God.
All that I have and all that I am I owe to God. Thanking Him for the blessings I receive, both big, and small help me feel better and brings me peace.
BUT
Write it down.
That’s when the magic happens.
Scientists have found that it improves our mental health and wellness when we journal our gratitude daily.
When you use the daily journal there is space every day to write down 5 things you are grateful about. When you start this habit, it will reshape your focus forever. This habit will bless your health, strengthen those around you, and connect you to happiness.
Hope this encourages you!
