An attitude of Gratitude has amazing results.
From a publishing by the Mayo
clinic:
"Expressing gratitude is associated with a host of mental and physical benefits. Studies have shown that feeling thankful can improve sleep, mood and immunity. Gratitude can decrease depression, anxiety, difficulties with chronic pain and risk of disease.
If a pill that could do this, everyone would be taking it.
Simply stated, gratitude should be practiced daily — just as you'd take that magic pill if it existed. Try starting your day by thinking of someone you're grateful for
as soon as you wake up. It could be appreciating a friend who sends you funny texts, a teacher who recognizes your child's gifts, or the barista who hands you your coffee and shares friendly conversation. Later, thank that person with a text, note or kind word when you see the person.
Remember that behavior changes biology. Positive gestures benefit you by
releasing oxytocin, a hormone that helps connect people. Some people call it the love hormone."
