Building a Gratitude Practice

In keeping with our latest August Professional Gratitude Campaign, we’ve been sharing much about the “WHY” of a gratitude practice, and now we’d like to share the “HOW.”

 

Here are some helpful — and easily implemented ideas on how to practice gratitude:

 

  1. Keep a gratitude journal, and add to it every evening before bed and read aloud in the morning.

  2. Send a note to a loved one, telling them how grateful you are for their presence in your life.

  3. Send a positive, uplifting text to a teammate, classmate or co-worker, thanking them for something they have done for you or the community.

  4. Before eating, express gratitude for the food in front of you and take the time to slowly and truly savor it.

  5. Observe, touch, smell, appreciate and walk in nature.

  6. Say “thank you” as often and to as many people as you can especially those that provide the necessary services that contribute to your daily comfort.

  7. Check-in with your family and friends and tell them what you appreciate about them and thank them for choosing to be in your life.

  8. Write a positive review/testimony for a business or entrepreneur to share your gratefulness for their excellent service. 

 

FINALLY, in Counseling Space Wellness Hub for women-leaders style, we ENCOURAGE you to close your eyes and picture the women who made a positive impact on the success of your business and/or career. NOW, continue to express gratitude to those women who helped you LEVEL UP in any way possible!

Let’s spread the love and pass it on!

Yours in Gratitude,

Leslie M. Garcia
