Every day for the month of November I will post something for which I am grateful. I invite you to join me in this exercise privately or by leaving a comment. Please share this blog with others and invite them to share this month long practice
When we live from a place of gratitude within, our energy and being shift; neurobiologists believe it actually rewires the brain. Gratitude regulates the sympathetic nervous system that activates our anxiety response. By living from a place of gratitude we strengthen the mind body connection. Gratitude causes a physiological response that can help relieve stress and pain, improve health over time and lighten depression.
In short, practicing gratitude can make us kinder more peaceful people.
Today I am grateful for Michele Pearce for giving me the idea for Days of Gratitude. Often my creativity is sparked by others. We are rarely creative in a vacuum. I believe the Spirit works through our creativity. When we share it with others it allows the Spirit to work in them as well.
What are you grateful for today?
