Gratitude involves being thankful and appreciative of what we have in the present moment. This practice has helped people experience more positive emotions, deepen relationships, and overall improve both physical as well as mental health.

When practicing gratitude, we explore the goodness in our lives and acknowledge it, but also recognize the sources that lead to this goodness. These sources can be simple things and thus help us ground ourselves to things we may otherwise not even notice.

Quite often, but always a room for improvement hehe.

🌺 What does gratitude mean to you?

BEING MINDFULL OF WHAT I HAVE AND THAT I DO NOT NECCESSARILY HAVE WHAT I HAVE BECAUSE DESERVE THEM MORE THAN ANY OTHER PERSON. AND WHEN OPPORTUNITY PRESENTS ITSELF I MUST SHARE BECAUSE ROLES CAN BE REVERSED AT ANY MOMENT. NOBODY IS SURE OF TOMORROW ONLY OF TODAY.

🌺 How often do you practice gratitude?

SADLY, NOT AS OFTEN AS I SHOULD, POSSIBLY ONCE/TWICE A WEEK.

🌺 What is one benefit of gratitude that you personally think is true for you?

GRATITUDE KEEPS ME HUMBLE AND SELFLESS.

🌺 What does gratitude mean to you?

To be, gratitude is positive emotions you hold towards something or someone. It can also be to yourself.

🌺 How often do you practice gratitude?

I try to practice gratitude but it is hard because everything else feels so overwhelming. It ends up not being very often.

🌺 What is one benefit of gratitude that you personally think is true for you?

I think a benefit of gratitude for me is the ability to focus or think about something or someone positively instead of focusing on the negitive.

🌺 What does gratitude mean to you?

Gratitude to me means showing both appreciation to yourself, others around you, and the general situations that are unfolding. What I mean by that is, you are acknowledging what's actively happening and trying your best to be thankful.

🌺 How often do you practice gratitude?

Not as often as I should! I do sometimes do 'I Am' statements in my mirror or shower, which can be a form of self gratitude in my opinion. "I am beautiful. I am strong" etc.

🌺 What is one benefit of gratitude that you personally think is true for you?

It can help you see the light in the darkness.

Gratitude to me means being thankful.

Appreciating everything around me.

Taking something small and making it bigger.

Looking at it with a fresh eye.

A new perspective of life.

🌺 Gratitude to mean means being appreciative of what you have. Being content and thankful. It is a positive emotion that, in turn, reflects kindness and warmth to another.


🌺 I’d like to think I practice gratitude most generally all the time but I know this is not true by the way I’ve had some people respond to me


🌺 The one benefit of gratitude that I feel is true for me is that I usually (or at least I try to) exude positivity.

the word "gratitude" means being grateful for the people and things you have in your life that you care about

i practice gratitude everyday by thanking God for The Gift of Life, and i also practice gratitude by creating good Karma for myself, as the saying goes, "that which you sow is what you will reap..."

What is one benefit of gratitude that you personally think is true for you?

one benefit of practicing gratitude that personally is true for me is the fact that being grateful for what i have makes me appreciate the gift of life and the people i care about!!!

What gratitude means to me:

Gratitude helps me to reduce the 'I, me, mine' nature of my mind. It helps me to look at every other life with as much sensitivity and gentleness as I would be to my child.

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.” ― Melody Beattie

Practicing gratitude

I practice gratitude everyday.

One benefit of gratitude

It changed my perspective towards the creation. I can bow down to an ant and a man who's my enemy.
