Practicing Gratitude Can Be The Antidote To Our Gloomy Thoughts.
Read on to discover how gratitude can change your life.
In fact, it can be an antidote to many things as well as a cure for our overall well-being. In a nutshell, (learning) to feel grateful can change your life completely and offer you the chance to see the world through different lenses.
Let’s explore how gratitude can change your life a bit further. But first, let’s take things from the start.
What is gratitude?
In short, gratitude is nothing more than the feeling of appreciation. Appreciating something means that you recognize its value and its importance and you are therefore content owing it, having it, experiencing it, or enjoying it. The “it” can be anything; from that sip of coffee first thing in the morning to your owning a house or having conquered breast cancer.
The practice of gratitude bestows bliss and well-being because it actually neutralizes toxicity from your mind. However, gratitude not only affects your mind. It affects your whole life and changes it for the better. Well, that is, if you commit to practicing gratefulness.
“Gratitude opens the door to the power, the wisdom, the creativity of the universe. You open the door through gratitude.”
-Deepak Chopra

How Can Gratitude Change Your Life?
It improves your health
Negative thoughts harm your body and your hormone system. Stressful thinking results in your body releasing cortisol, the well-known “stress hormone” that creates a domino effect in your body.
Gratitude, in contrast, neutralizes stress keeping cortisol to normal levels. It also helps you boost your brain’s neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine, which are responsible for feeling happy and energized. These two chemicals are our mood regulators. In addition, they are responsible for our good memory and cognitive function. Knowing this, you can see how gratitude can change your life.
It gives you emotional balance
“Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good.”
-Maya Angelou
It boosts your self-confidence
When you get tangled up in negativity, you become disconnected from yourself. Lack of gratitude leads you to focus more on what others have (and therefore that you lack), instead of acknowledging your strong points and resources.
Practicing gratefulness returns the focus to you, reminds you of the gifts you have, and enhances your self-confidence. And you know what they say; self-confidence is sexy and the key to achieving anything you want in life! Can you think of a better way than letting the practice of gratitude change your life?
