We see people who always seem to be happier than we are; do you think it is because they don't have any stress in their life, absolutely not, it just means they are grateful for the areas of their life that aren't stressful.. That in turn makes their life automatically more joyful.One of the ways to start practicing gratitude is to start a gratitude journal and make a list of all the things you are grateful for. Add to the journal every day and carry it with you so that when something catches you off guard you can refer to your grateful journal. You can also carry grateful stones or have them by your desk at work or in the car; then just hold them and/or rub them when stressful feelings come up. It is important to keep your stress levels down as it has been proven in many studies that practicing gratitude benefits your personal health, your overall happiness, aids in a faster recovery of many operations, aids in a faster healing of many diseases and improves relationships at work and at home.
