Gratitude is a way of thinking, not just a feeling. We tend to believe that gratitude is the result of being happy, when, in fact, the opposite is true.

When we do something for the benefit of others without expecting anything in return, the reward systems in our brain activate and we experience happiness.

Our brains are far more plastic than we had assumed, adapting in response to new experiences throughout our entire lives to a degree we had never thought possible.

Developing familiarization with our inner sense of self across all dimensions, emotionally, psychologically, and bodily, is essential for a sense of wellbeing.
