Why Practice Gratitude
As the research tells us, practicing gratitude is not only a positive mindful coping tool but it also helps us to cultivate joy and balance. Focusing on what we are thankful for increases feel-good emotions, helps us to be more present in the here and now, improves sleep, and can even strengthen our immune system, making us not only more emotionally healthy but physically healthy as well.
