懂得感恩-行动起来

Get moving.

 

They may not seem similar, but gratitude¹ and fitness can go hand-in-hand.

 

According to Emmons's 2003 study, people who practiced gratitude also engaged in more exercise.

 

There results also found that study participants had fewer dietary restrictions² and were less likely to smoke or abuse alcohol.

 

Volunteer.

 

Everyone needs a little help sometimes -- and grateful people know there's no other way to acknowledge this than by actively³ doing something about it.

 

In his book Thanks!, Emmons wrote,"Since service to others helped them to ?and their own inner spirituality, they were grateful for the opportunity to serve".

 

As research published in BMC Public Health points out, volunteering can result in lower feelings of depression and increased overall well-being⁴.
