Do you know that simply expressing gratitude everyday will make you 25% happier?
An impressive stat to say the least!
Now imagine if you incorporate gratitude into your daily meditation practice. Unfortunately I don’t have a statistic for the power of this, but in my opinion your daily appreciation and overall happiness will drastically increase and soar past 25%!
Expressing gratitude and meditating on a daily basis are both extremely powerful and important rituals that I encourage you to incorporate into your day-to-day life. A lot of people keep special gratitude journals dedicated solely to what they’re grateful for while some people choose to verbalize their gratitude to others or simply express it mentally.
I choose to express gratitude in multiply ways and one of those ways is during my meditation practice!
1. The first thing I do when I turn on my computer every morning is visit www.gratitudelog.com.
It’s an awesome online community where you can express gratitude and appreciation for anything in your life! I love it because you can send appreciation notes to anyone you wish to thank or appreciate. Make sure to check this site out because it’s something positive that you can easily do to brighten your day.
2. Another time that I express gratitude is when I’m laying in bed at night. It’s usually when I close my eyes and I still have a few thoughts running through my mind that I choose to direct my attention on the wonderful things of my day. Sometimes I’m grateful for a productive day at work or for eating healthy and going to the gym. Other days I’m grateful for sunshine and blue skies.
3. Last but not least I express gratitude when I meditate. I don’t spend my entire session meditating on my gratefulness, but I do make sure to squeeze in abit of gratitude in my sessions. Now it might sound a bit odd to be grateful for something I don’t have but I know that the meditative state is powerful and if I act like I already have something then my subconscious will believe it and work towards achieving it! Cool, right?
Try incorporating gratitude into your daily routine and remember to express gratitude during your meditation sessions. It’s a great way to “kill two birds with one stone” and work towards conquering your goals and being thankful for what you already have in your life!
