Gratitude Activity Snippet
Improve health with Gratitude? Much of your physical health is affected by your mental health. How you think helps influence the emotions that you feel, the brain chemicals that are released, and ultimately, the physical effects that you experience in your body.
You may be sitting in a chair, unthreatened by your environment, yet, you are thinking about the uncertainties of the future, the troubles at home, the bills to be paid. Your brain experiences this stress as it would a physical threat.
Research with gratitude practitioners has shown a 23% reduction in the stress hormone, cortisol. Changing the way you think can help you be both happier and healthier.
Weekly Activity
3 Good Things Exercise
In this week’s exercise, you are asked to document 3 good things that
happened during your day. This practice has demonstrated a 35% reduction in depression symptoms. Try and practice for as many days as possible this week. You can write about something positive at work, a child’s report card, an interaction with a stranger, or anything else about your day that was good. When writing about your 3 good things, try writing about how you helped make the good things happen.
