er as a day of gratitude for the nations’ harvest
Thanksgiving Day in the United States and – did you know – in Brazil is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November as a day of gratitude for the nations’ harvests
Advanced research at the Institute of HeartMath and elsewhere has provided evidence that gratitude is not simply a nice sentiment or feeling. Sustained feelings of gratitude have real benefits, including the following:
Biochemical changes
Increased positivity
Boost to the immune system
Emotional "compound interest"
Thankfully, gratitude and appreciation can create their own positive psychophysiological holiday in your body – without the necessity of a feast.
Appreciation Exercise
Take a few short appreciation breaks during the day. During each break take one or two minutes to breathe deeply through the area of the heart. While doing so, try to hold a sincere feeling of appreciation in your heart area
activating a positive feeling like appreciation literally shifts our physiology, helping to balance our heart rhythms and nervous system, and creates more coherence between the heart, brain and rest of the body.Read more at www.heartmath.org
