[Thanksgiving], The Power of Saying Your Thanks Out Loud Ep 845
We all know gratitude is good for you\u2013we\u2019ve heard the advice to keep a gratitude journal, and I\u2019ve talked before about reminding yourself of all the things you\u2019re grateful for while you\u2019re lying in bed at night. But there\u2019s something really powerful about actually expressing your thanks outloud. Since it\u2019s Thanksgiving here in the U.S. today, today is a great day to take this idea for a test drive.\xa0\nI\u2019ve got some research to share on the power of telling someone else what you\u2019re grateful for, but first, I\u2019m going to start with a couple of little examples that show you what I mean.\xa0\nSomething we have done in our family at Thanksgiving is to go around the table and everyone names one thing that they\u2019re grateful for. You know, it\u2019s not a speech or a big to-do, you\u2019re just naming something, and you can always say something obvious like family or food and there\u2019s absolutely no shame in that. BUT some very meaningful and memorable moments have come out of that exercise.\xa0\nThis episode sponsored by:\xa0\nBetter Help\nNutrafol promo code \u201cBETTER\u201d\nLearn more about your ad choices.
