By Elize Dechartier

The practice of gratitude is one of the effective and simple ways you can do to transform your thoughts and your life. Making a point of jotting down all the things that you are grateful for can take the experience to a whole new level. Keeping a gratitude journal is easy and on the simplest level it involves making a note of the things that you are grateful for that day. You can decide how long your list is each day and how much detail you want to go into. The great thing is that it's an easy habit to form and after a while you are left with a great collection of inspiring material to look back on when you are in need of a pick-me-up.Research suggest that keeping a gratitude journal may improve positive thinking, improve self-esteem, may help you sleep better, and it may help you reduce stress. Grateful people take better care of themselves, meaning in the long run they live healthier lives and are therefore able to manage stress in a healthier way. Showing gratitude has been proven to reduce social comparisons and by expressing what you are thankful for you are less likely to focus on what you don't have right now. By writing down what you are thankful for it can make you more optimistic because you are choosing to see more of the positivity in your life and give less power to negative emotions.
