\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With the Thanksgiving holiday upon us, there are numerous columns and articles discussing various aspects of the holiday (almost too many!)\u00a0 But we would like to take the opportunity to bring attention to the overall benefits to our lives of having a thankful attitude.\u00a0 (This information may be some you want to share with others.)<\/p>\n

In his bestselling book,\u00a0What Happy People Know\u00b9<\/u>,<\/em> Dr. Dan Baker (who is the director of the well-known wellness program at Canyon Ranch in Arizona) states that\u00a0appreciation is the single most important tool in developing an enjoyable life<\/em><\/strong>. Additionally, social scientists who have studied the impact of stress on our lives cite a mental attitude of thankfulness as\u00a0one of the best ways to manage stress.\u00b2\u00a0 Gratitude has also been linked to improvements in physical health such as lower blood pressure; longer, more restful sleep; and being less bothered by aches and pains.\u00a0 The benefits of gratitude may be due to the neurotransmitter dopamine,\u00b3 which is associated with mood regulation, sleep regulation and mental focus. Moreover, because dopamine is a \u201creward\u201d neurotransmitter,4<\/sup> increases in it make you more likely to do the thing you just did: it\u2019s like a \u201cgratitude snowball effect\u201d where you seek out more good things to appreciate.<\/p>\n

Gratitude has three main components:\u00b2<\/strong><\/p>\n

1) An affirmation of the goodness in your life: that there actually are good things in this crazy mixed-up world<\/strong>.\u00a0 Always focusing upon the negative, or the things you don\u2019t like can be discouraging.\u00a0 Yet, taking some time to focus upon the good things from your day can instantly improve your mood. Living in a thankful, appreciative way — \u00a0daily, hourly, moment by moment \u2014 can truly enhance the quality of our lives.<\/p>\n

2) Figuring out that the sources of goodness at least partially come from outside ourselves<\/strong>.\u00a0 Friends, family, colleagues, and even random strangers give us gifts \u2013 big and small \u2013 that bring a smile to our faces and make our lives a little better.<\/p>\n

3) Expressing appreciation for the good things that someone did for our benefit.\u00a0 <\/strong>This involves taking a moment from our day to reflect upon the good thing, and the time, skills, and\/or financial investment required behind it.\u00a0 Then, doing something to let the person know you appreciate them.<\/p>\n

How to Cultivate Gratitude<\/strong><\/p>\n

Research5<\/sup> has shown that individuals who track things daily they are grateful for show greater determination, attention, enthusiasm, and energy compared to those who don\u2019t practice this discipline. The same research found that even a weekly gratitude journal showed increases in optimism.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>To make it easy, there are even free gratitude apps you can download that send you a push notification prompt to log the good things that happened in your day.\u00a0 Even without an app, you could pick one day per week to focus upon gratitude. Since Thanksgiving is on a Thursday, maybe you can start a new tradition \u201cThankful Thursday\u201d in which you are intentional about showing gratitude every Thursday.<\/p>\n

What are some of the things you are thankful for in your friends, family and colleagues?\u00a0 Are they a good listener?\u00a0 Thoughtful? A good cook?\u00a0 Give good hugs?\u00a0 Great at planning events?\u00a0 Fun to be around?\u00a0 Dependable?\u00a0 Hard working?\u00a0 Have an eye for detail?\u00a0 Smart?\u00a0 Generous?\u00a0 Funny?\u00a0 Patient? Have a unique talent? Do they inspire you?<\/p>\n

Once you identify the good thing in your life and the person responsible for it, take steps to display your appreciation. Because each person has a unique language that speaks true appreciation to them<\/a>, here are some suggestions to try.<\/p>\n

We would encourage all of us to use this holiday week of Thanksgiving to set aside some time, both individually and with our family and friends, and reflect on the blessings we have in our lives. And share those thoughts with others.<\/p>\n

A positive approach to life can be contagious!<\/p>\n
