Gratitude Helps Mental Strength

Did you know?
 
Did you know gratitude increases mental strength? For years, research has shown gratitude not only reduces stress, but it may also play a major role in overcoming trauma. 

It is shown that people with higher levels of gratitude experienced lower rates of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Gratitude has been shown to be a  major contributor to resilience following the terrorist attacks on September 11.  Recognizing all you have to be thankful for – even during the worst times of your life – fosters resilience.
We all have the ability and opportunity to cultivate gratitude. Simply take a few moments to focus on all that you have – rather than complain about all the things you think you deserve. Developing an attitude of gratitude is one of the simplest ways to improve your satisfaction with life.  Give it a try, and see how you like it.
