People who focus on gratitude, by keeping a list of what they were grateful for, exercised more often, had fewer physical symptoms, felt better about their lives, and were more positive about the week ahead compared to those who recorded hassles or neutral life event. Grateful people report more positive emotions, more vitality and optimism, and greater life satisfaction as well as lower lover levels of stress and desperation. (Emmons and McCullough)
Wishing you people and wellbeing as you reframe negative events into positive ones.
PS: Remember to hold the ones you love just a little closer and tighter this week (without expectations)
