Yesterday’s Thanksgiving was a day for practicing gratitude, but why stop at just one day a year. Studies show that people who regularly practice gratitude are less likely to procrastinate and more likely to remain focused on priorities, as well as find creative solutions to problems. Bodies of scientific research also suggest that practicing gratitude supports your immune system, reduces stress and improves sleep, positive impacts that mirror the effects of meditation. Being grateful can be as simple as taking time out of your day to acknowledge what is happening externally and internally, or giving someone a smile. See here how gratitude creates such positive effects and how to implement it in your life.
