Where’s The Gratitude?
“Today, however, we are fortunate to have a greater understanding of the science of gratitude. Even with the impressive research….there appears to be a deficiency in how we think about and express gratitude”
Excerpts from Gratitude Heals ~ A Journal for Inspiration and Guidance.
Gratitude, once defined as a simple emotion, has sparked worldwide interest and research over the past 20 years. We now have evidence-based studies on how gratitude affects multiple regions of the brain, releases “good” neurochemicals into the bloodstream, and strengthens and creates new neural (brain) pathways. The science and practice of gratitude are rapidly becoming more accessible and mainstream in our personal lives, our communities, schools, and professionally in our workplace.
