Adopt The Law Of Gratitude

Make Note Of Your Blessings

Adopt the law of gratitude? Like a lot of things we experience, it can sometimes be very difficult to be thankful for everything in life, posittive or negative.

And I think the above statement is very important.

It fits all of us! We all struggle with some part of being thankful for negative situations, and it doesn't matter that these situations teach us important lessons.

So I totally understand this statement...

Gratitude is a natural high. When you live in tandem with your spirit, appreciating all of life and what you have, you discover more joy and kindness in the world.

Miracles happen everywhere all the time, but only those with an “Attitude of Gratitude” seem to notice them. This circle of peace grows and you return to your natural state of joy, love and peace, knowing you are whole and complete just as you are.

“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.” ~ Cicero

The following is a list of the top ten reasons to adopt the Law of Gratitude in your life:

One. Being in Gratitude Only Has Positive Side Effects

Two. Feelings of Gratitude Provide Short-Cuts to Miracles

Three. Thoughts of Gratitude Flood Your Body with Immune-Boosting Endorphins

When you hold feelings of thankfulness for at least 15 to 20 seconds, beneficial physiological changes take place in your body.

Levels of the stress hormones cortisol and norepinephrine decrease, producing a cascade of beneficial metabolic changes.

Coronary arteries relax, thus increasing the blood supply to your heart. And your breathing becomes deeper, raising the oxygen level of your tissues.

Four. Feeling Grateful Puts you Back into the ‘Flow of Life’ at the Speed of Thought

Five. Gratitude Unlocks the Fullness of Life

Six. Feelings of Gratitude Give You a ‘Natural High’

Seven. Gratitude Provides an Immediate Sense of Well-Being

Eight. Feeling Grateful is the Main Cause of ‘Sustained Joy’

Nine. The More You Give - The More You Receive

Ten. When You Are Genuinely Thankful Anger and Fear Disappear

To Practice This Thought:

• Be lavish in your gratefulness.

• Make the law of gratitude a daily ritual.

• Be thankful for whatever forces you to deal with your own strong emotions.

• Set aside an hour or two to do nothing much except be grateful.

Focus on what is working in your life and what IS right in the world. It doesn’t matter how small or seemingly insignificant it may be. Before long you will notice that more things will fall into place with little or no effort on your part. The law of gratitude is a wonderful tool to use to feel good fast.
