White lotus in pondDo you know that practicing gratitude on a regular basis helps you to be happier, healthier, more rested, and more successful?

"Call it corny, but gratitude just may be the glue that holds society together.” Gratitude needn’t be directed at another person to hit its mark. Take just a few minutes each day to jot down things that make you thankful, from the generosity of friends to the food on your table or the right to vote. After a few weeks, people who follow this routine “feel better about themselves, have more energy and feel more alert". -Psychology Today
