READING RECOMMENDATION


During this season of thanks, it can be easy to get swept up in busyness or stress. But a recent 2025 study involving nearly 18,000 participants found that just 5 to 10 minutes a day spent practicing gratitude... like reflecting on what went well or savoring a small bright moment, led to measurable improvements in stress, mood, sleep, and overall health.


The takeaway? Gratitude doesn’t need to be big to be powerful. Grounding yourself in the small, steady good (even briefly) can greatly shift your day and strengthen your well-being.

Too Busy to Focus on Your Happiness? Try Daily Micro-Acts of Joy

TRY THIS


3 Micro-Acts of Gratitude & Joy. Each takes just a few minutes:


One Good Thing: Before bed or while you sip your coffee, jot down one thing that went well today and why it mattered.


Gratitude Text: Send a quick note to someone you appreciate. Let them know something specific they’ve done that made a difference.


Step Outside & Listen: Take a short walk or sit in stillness. Notice a few details: a sound, a breeze, the color of the sky... and just be present in the moment.


These practices are small, but over time they can help you feel more grounded, hopeful, and connected to yourself and others.
