The Healing Power Of Gratitude Increases Positive Moods
Scientist Research The Benefits Of Gratitude On Your Health
It's amazing how the healing power of gratitude can have such a great effect on your
positive moods, but it's not surprising that scientist are now noticing the connection
between the benefits of gratitude and a person's health.
Gratitude Facilitates Deep HealingBy Kay Hutchinson
At the University of California at Davis, psychology researchers conducted a study to
explore the factor of gratitude on human health and wellness.
One of the things that researchers discovered was that "a daily gratitude intervention
(self-guided exercises) with young adults resulted in reported levels of positive states
of alertness, enthusiasm, determination, attentiveness and energy."
Also, adults with neuromuscular disease benefited greatly...
In terms of higher energy, positive moods, and optimist ratings of one's life when
they practiced a 21-days gratitude intervention program.
Why 21 days? It takes 21 days to establish a habit and re-train the brain to develop
new thought patterns that then influence behavior.
You can use the following self-guided meditation to begin your 21-days habit.
Start the next day and continue for 21 days
It takes less than five minutes to perform and is easy to integrate into your day.
Gratitude Visualization. The healing power of gratitude.
Inhale deeply for a count of five. Exhale deeply for a count a five. Continue breathing
deeply and naturally.
Imagine all the blessings in your life as golden tangible energy flowing from the
heavens above, entering your crown point on the head, and washing through you like
a loving, warm waterfall.
Allow all feelings of tension, stress, anxiety and worry to wash away
As this loving warm energy of gratitude flows all through you. Take a moment to send out this
loving glowing energy of gratitude to all your loved ones and those in need.
End the visualization by giving thanks to your highest healing power.
Close the meditation by placing your hands on your lower abdomen and storing those
wonderful feelings of gratitude.
The healing power of gratitude!
