Amongst the things you can give and hold onto the same time, is your word, a smile and a heart full of gratitude.
Did you know that gratitude is one of the basic ingredients of our happiness? Research has shown that showing gratitude in our everyday life (to ourselves, life, other people, etc.) increases our life satisfaction and makes us happy. Indeed, the feeling of gratitude increases dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin levels, the neurochemical substances that make us feel good! Gratitude brings us closer to other people, boosts our generosity and feelings of safety and consistency, drawing out, at the same time, negative emotions. So, begin showing more and more gratidude today!
