The Science of Gratitude

Posted by Nicki Peasley Share Your Voice

Our friends at Oneness School turned us on to the great article that offers practical suggestions on how to incorporate a gratitude practice in your life. 

The article summarizes positive psychology pioneer Robert Emmons' new book, Thanks!  How Gratitude Can Make You Happier. The book provides scientific proof of the connection between gratitude and health.   Those who practice grateful thinking "reap emotional, physical, and interpersonal benefits."

Gratitude is a choice... and what better time to get started that during this week of Thanksgiving?
