Ways to Increase your Gratitude

• Before your feet touch the floor each morning, focus on the bounty right where you are: a warm bed, another day, a body to serve you.
  
  
• Before you close your eyes at night, think of the best thing that happened to you that day, and be grateful for it.
  
  
• Try to stay mindful of the present moment. No matter what is going on, most of us are safe and know where our next meal is coming from.
  
  
• Make a daily list of 5 things for which you are grateful, no matter how insignificant they seem.
  
  

The practice of gratitude means acknowledging that we are beneficiaries of life. We do not put the chicken in the egg or the oak tree in the acorn, but are merely recipients of those gifts. Research suggests that grateful people are better able to cope with stress and have stronger immune systems than those who primarily focus on illness or problems.

We Gotta Laugh

... and Dream!

Having a positive, grateful attitude does NOT mean denying or ignoring problems. Like infections, trauma tends to fester and make us ill if it is ignored or minimized. I take a balanced, healthy approach that deals with both the past events AND the present thinking patterns that contribute to current problems. Many years of study, internships, licensures, and experience qualifies me to help you find a more peaceful and grateful life, free from your past. Are you ready to begin?
