This week we will expand our understanding and experience of gratitude and the mind-body connection. Gratitude is much more than just an attitude or mood, it’s a powerful positive entryway to the mind-body duality. Which leads to increased physical and psychological well-being.

Grateful thoughts and meditative states don’t just stay in your mind. Rather, its effects are transmitted instantly to the body’s 100 trillion cells, creating new brain cells and new brain pathways and patterns.

We practice gratitude to change our gene expression in a positive direction. By directing our awareness toward gratitude, the entire mind and body system is automatically directed toward better health and balance.

There is no prescription for finding moments of gratitude in every day; there is simply the choice.
