More Information about the Gratitude Project, and It's Value

Posted by MeLisa Strongheart on February 9, 2011 at 10:15pm

"The Gratitude exercise is a powerful tool for increasing life satisfaction because it amplifies good memories about the past, and it forges a very strong bond with an important person from your past. The goal of this exercise is for you to experience the power of expressing your gratitude to someone who has touched your life."  as written by someone at the reflexsivehappiness.com  (web site no longer working)

At the end of the post, below,  is a video of Dr Martin Seligman, considered the founder of Positive Psychology, describing the gratitude assignment, and it's value in our lives.

 

Check out the Gratitude Group  to see some of the assignments already completed.
