9 Benefits of Gratitude

I was reminded today about the importance of gratitude.

Wallace Wattles, in his book "The science of Getting Rich" says:

"There is a law of gratitude, and if you are to get the results you seek, it is absolutely necessary that you should observe this law."

An attitude of gratitude can enhance our lives in many ways. Here is a list of 9 benefits of having an attitude of gratitude.
  1. Can help you to have a more positive mood
  2. Creates a sense of emotional well being
  3. Can help to create better interpersonal relationships
  4. Can improve physical health
  5. Positive impact on both cardiovascular and immune functions.
  6. Reduces stress
  7. Live a longer life
  8. Reduces depression
  9. Reduces fear
Developing and nurturing gratitude is one of the things that can help our lives to be more pleasant, useful and fulfilling. Most of the difficulties in life can be eased by making some changes to our mental state. Having gratitude as a normal part of your daily life and thoughts is worth the effort that it might take to have it as your normal response.

Positively enjoy life
