Week of 5/24

This is the last week of Mental Health Awareness month and I wanted to share a simple practice that can improve your mood and reduce your stress level. Every day this week (or longer), I want you to list three things you're grateful for. You can use these sentence starters too:

1. I’m most grateful for ___________________.
2. I’m so thankful that___________________.
3. I love when ___________________.

Regardless if the things are big or small that you're grateful for, people who are grateful are happier and healthier. Studies have shown being grateful increases your positive mood and decreases negative emotion. It also helps with an overall positive outlook on life and satisfaction. Share some things you're grateful for in the comments!
