Did you know that gratitude can actually reduce your pain and stress? Being grateful for all of the good things and people that are in your life is good medicine.
Being thankful actually boosts your immune system and kicks in the ‘feel-good’ natural chemicals in your body.
Gratitude will help you enjoy your life more and feel better.
There is way too much reliance on medication for peace of mind and pain relief. A simple, natural technique like this–being grateful–may be just what the doctor ordered! (Or should have.)
Ok, you have 10 seconds. Now, quick–tell me at least 5 things that you are thankful for. Need a little help?
What made you feel happy today?
- What made you smile?
What did you see that was beautiful or took your breath away?
What tasted good?
Did you watch something pleasant in nature?
Did you share a joke and someone laughed?
Did something NOT hurt?
Is something getting better or healing?
Did the sun come up?
Ask yourself as many questions as you need to pump up your Vitamin G – Gratitude – and you can start feeling better fast. 🙂 (No bad side effects, either!)
The attitude of gratitude might be just the ticket to reduce your pain.
