What Are You Thankful For?

"When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.Willie Nelson 

Do you ever stop to ask yourself the question "What am I thankful for?"  I don't just mean at thanksgiving.   I'm talking about on a daily basis.  When life is so busy and you're rushing around to get the kids to school and yourself to work, do you ever stop for a moment to reflect on the goods things in your life?  Recently it was suggested to me to ask myself this question on a daily basis, in fact, often, on a daily basis.  And it's been putting me in a great mood.

Here's some science on Appreciation:

When we're in a state of appreciation, our heart rate is more smooth and consistent.  When we're in anger, it's erratic and jumpy.

When we appreciate something, blood flows more easily and smoothly to our brain.  Anger restricts it.

When we are appreciating, we have an affect on those around us.  We actually produce warm vibes which others pick up on.  Have you ever been around a grumpy person and found their mood rubbed off on you?  Of course you have.  Well, good moods do the same.  So spread the love.

And all that, on top of what the Law of Attraction brings you when you are thankful.  Remember, you get what you give.  So giving off appreciation for what you have, attracts more things for you to appreciate. Don't you want to be surrounding by awesomeness????
