• increasing feelings of energy
• helping handle stress
• feeling more generous toward others
• being more forgiving
• feeling less lonely and isolated
• fostering hope for the future
• improving how you regulate your emotions
• reducing stress and burnout
• building stronger relationships
• improving overall health
• dealing with adversity
• shifting your focus from the negative to the positive
• improving your quality of life
• making you feel happier
• reducing your inner fears
• strengthening your faith
• giving you peace of mind
• helping you reach your goals
• minimizing a feeling of hopelessness
• expressing more kindness
• expressing compassion towards others
• providing sources of inspiration
• understanding the beauty and miracle of life

Slowly read the above 30 benefits of gratitude and ask yourself if you would like to receive these benefits? If so, I invite you to begin to practice “Gratitude”, and move toward living in a “State of Gratitude”.

It has really helped me, and I believe it will help you too. I send my best to you.
