About this project

Gratitude is about appreciating what we have, rather than craving what we don’t. Gratitude is worth cultivating because there are stacks of benefits. Dr Robert Emmons, a world expert on Gratitude, has conducted research on it (see:emmons.faculty.ucdavis.edu/gratitude-and-well-being/) and demonstrated that Grateful people feel better physically, are more optimistic, more alert, enthusiastic, determined, attentive and energetic. They also have a greater sense of connection to others, and have longer and better quality sleep. Others have linked Gratitude to less stress, less anxiety and depression, higher long-term satisfaction with quality of life and greater capacity to cope with life changes. WOW.

Gratitude can be cultivated as a habit. I made a gratitude post everyday for a year and rewired my brain (see the Make Gratitude Your Attitude 21 Challenge to learn more about making gratitude a habit). Family and friends shared things they are grateful for - and these are shared below
