We enjoy the energy medicine newsletter we receive from our friend Dr. Melanie of Well Within Natural Medicine in St. Petersburg, FL.

Today she wrote:

“An ‘attitude of gratitude,’ is easy to detect. It shows up as a smile, welcoming hello, positive and uplifting words, a confident posture and of course an overall vibration of loving kindness. Feel how Melody Beattie’s words capture its essence, ‘Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.'”

Live in Your Attitude of Gratitude

You have felt that difference too, haven’t you? When a small change of  mind turns what you have into enough, and more.

It need not be a huge thing. The great teacher Louise Hay offers some tips for the tough times when everything seems bleak. She says we can be grateful for a brightly colored leaf, a sunrise, a loving pet, a bed, the postal service, for the water that comes when we turn the tap, or even — oh, joy! — for the water to be hot.

What will you think of today to connect with your attitude of gratitude?
