Thought for today….Gratitude Rocks!
Did you know that gratitude has an impact on your brain at a biological level?
Did you know that what some anti-depressants do…gratitude does too!
Releases Dopamine!
When we feel grateful we are actually activating the region of the brain that produces dopamine~> the organic chemical in our brains that makes you feel and do happy things!
So if you’re feeling down…do something that makes you think or feel grateful–>Pump up that feel good organic chemical!!
Need something to help you do this consistently? Pick a ‘Gratitude’ item. Ever time you touch or feel that item make yourself think or say something that you’re grateful for! Ie. I use my rings. Everytime I put them on or take them off OR see them OR if something draws my attention to feeling them on my finger–> I think of things I’m grateful for!
