Gratitude that goes beyond Thanksgiving.

On this special holiday, we are often encouraged to create a GRATITUDE list.  Gratitude is an emotion expressing appreciation for what one has. Take a few minutes out of your day and honestly ask yourself, "What am I thankful for?" Write down your list in a notebook.  It does not matter the length of this list.  For the remaining days up to Thanksgiving, I would encourage you to reflect on this list and GIVE THANKS. Gratitude is good medicine for the mind, body, and soul. I challenge you to give gratitude year around. Giving thanks daily is beneficial for your health. Happy Thanksgiving! Kacee Tannenbaum, LCSW
