With
Thanksgiving just around the corner there is usually more talk of
gratitude this time of year. But an attitude of gratitude is more than
just a tired cliche. Did you know that being grateful is beneficial
all year long? Alert, enthusiastic, determined, energized: Self-guided
daily gratitude exercises in young adults resulted in higher reported
levels of positive states of alertness, enthusiasm, determination, and
energy compared to a focus on hassles or downward social comparison
(ways in which participants thought they were better off than others). |
