Recently I have attended a life coaching seminar and the speaker has strongly recommended an exercise developed in the U.S. This exercise was proven to be very useful and effective to lighten up one’s mood. The exercise is by the end of each day, write down 3 things that you are grateful for. The items (of gratitude) are highly personal and subjective. The key is to record them down on a paper or another media (computer for example). It is an effective way to reflect and reinforce our gratitude which in turn will generate the positive energy and improve our mood as well change our perspective.
Give it a go and tell me if it works :>
