Create an Attitude of Gratitude!

Published by: Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak-Performance-Success Coach on 31st May 2012 | View all blogs by Eileen Lichtenstein - Peak-Performance-Success Coach

Gratitude is one of the most powerful positive emotions and you can actually CREATE AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE!!  Studies show that expressing gratitude increases positive emotion and decreases depression symptoms.

People report having more energy, better sleep, alertness, enthusiasm, determination, feelings of being connected, optimistic.  People who express gratitude are more likely to take better preventative care of themselves and meet their goals.

How much gratitude do you feel right now?
 

Here are 2 gratitude enhancers:
 

1)      Write about 3 good things that happened to you and how you contributed to that good thing happening.

(Note: In research studies of this very exercise participants significantly increased their happiness level and decreased their rate of depression.  Those effects held true 6 months later, particularly for people who valued the exercise and continued to do it.)
 

And now you can try what Abraham Hicks calls “A Rampage of Appreciation”. 
 

2)      List and feel as many things as you can, big and small that you’re grateful for 5 minutes straight or until you feel so full with the emotion it spews out of your chest.  It’s harder than you think, but can completely energize your mind, your perspective and even your immune system.

I’m grateful to have come across these tools. 

                                                                          Happy car...

Let me know how these practices go for you!
