Keeping a journal of not just what you appreciate but why, and5. Having a gratitude buddy who will keep you accountable to focus on the good.These simple, yet effective steps will cultivate a heart of gratitude and boost your mood. Resources: ·       You Are Enough: Calming Anxiety with Gratitude  by Silver Kiwi Media, ·       Practice Thankfulness: Cultivating a Grateful Heart by Sam  Crabtree , ·       Ginger’s yoga classText us your thoughts or questions at our Care Line: 317-979-7133For more information about Care to Change visit www.caretochange.org Follow Care to Change on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/CaretoChange.org/Follow Care to Change on Instagram or Twitter @care_to_change If you would like someone to come speak to your group about anxiety, depression or mental health, contact us for more details. If you are struggling and ready to take a step toward freedom, schedule an appt today.
