A Grateful Heart Leads to a Happy Heart


It really has to be said that where our minds go, our hearts go, too.  If you are stuck in a bad way, and can't seem to find happiness or joy in your life then check your thoughts.  How do you speak to yourself? How do you speak to others?

Everyone goes through trials, that's just life.  The way each of us deals with those trials, those valleys in our lives, determines how we come through them.  I chose to amputate, and I choose to make the most of my life now.  I try and choose happiness, joy, and a grateful heart everyday I wake up.  Somedays it is harder than others, I get that, I have been there, but those moments do NOT dictate my overall mental state that day.  Sometimes I need to practice speaking more positively towards myself, and giving myself some grace, on those days.  Sometimes it's easy to see the positive, and sometimes it's the hardest thing EVER!

The point is, when you practice being grateful, and seeing all the good things in your life, in your circumstance, you will radiate joy, you will see the health benefits of a happy heart and mind.  And they do go hand in hand.

Try it!

What are you happy about? What are you grateful for in your life?

In this podcast I share with you the people, and things, I am grateful for. I choose to practice gratefulness.

As you head into this Thanksgiving week, pay attention to the people and moments that are happening around you. Be grateful for even the smallest things.  I guarantee you will feel so much better about yourself.

This week write down the things you are thankful for and place them where you can see them everyday.
 
*Use a smooth, fabric table cloth and permanent markers and begin a new tradition of writing something you are thankful for over the past year. Do this as a Thanksgiving tradition and each year add something to it with your friends and family.  Then each year that you pull it out you'll have a constant reminder of the things you've been thankful for over the years.
*Start a Thankfulness Jar.  Have a big open jar or bowl sitting out for the holiday season with slips of paper, then each night have everyone write something they are thankful for that day, and then date them. On New Year's Day have everyone take turns pulling them out and reading them.
*Begin a journal that is simply: I am thankful for:.....
  Write in it every night, going to bed with a full heart of gratitude.
 
Have a very special, wonderful, and blessed Thanksgiving. Safe travels!
As always,
Be Healthy,
Be Happy,
Be YOU!
 
Much love and gratefulness,
Angie
