Thank you! Thank me! Being grateful sets me free.
An attitude of gratitude celebrates your every experience as a precious lesson learned and becomes a stepping stone to higher ground. Especially when you navigate a rut or setback, your great-full-ness becomes a shock absorber that makes even the bumps smoother.
The more you appreciate; the more you appreciate. That’s because appreciation reminds you to love yourself and others. Besides, being grateful feels great. Researchers say when you take a moment to appreciate, you literally “boost energy, lower inflammation, sleep better and are healthier.”
DO THIS and be INTERNALLY GRATEFUL
Think of three things you appreciate about yourself.

NOW AFFIRM: “Thank you for my life. Thank you for all blessings big and small. Thank you, Body, for doing your job on my behalf 24/7! Thank you Mind for the wonderful stories you conjure that come real. Thank you for this earth walk. Thank you for my life lessons and all I have learned and all I have yet to learn. I congratulate myself for doing everyday things like breathing, eliminating and doing the dishes.”
DO THIS FOR MORE LOVE: Think of three things you appreciate about another.

NOW AFFIRM: “I notice and appreciate my love, connection and friendship with beings big and small. I honor the gifts from those who made my chair, bed, car, roads, bridges, trains and planes. Thank you for bringing me running water, electricity, washing machines, cameras and computers. I thank those souls who help me on my journey; even the petty tyrants who remind me to be a better version of myself. So, I take a nice full, easy breath, and then sit back and enjoy the jolly good feeling of being more connected and glad to be alive.
