There’s no wrong way to keep a gratitude journal. You just need to write down up to 5 things for which you feel grateful for 15 minutes a day. The goal of the exercise is to remember a good event, experience, person, or thing in your life & enjoy the good emotions it brings.
Reiki Sessions
Reiki is a form of Japanese energy healing. Reiki therapy is a way of guiding energy throughout the body to promote the recipient’s self-healing abilities.
Try Out Gratitude Sound Healing
Sound healing uses harmonics, cymatics, entrainment, and binaural beats. The soothing sounds help rewire your brain to deal with stress & headaches by replenishing brain energy with high-frequency sound and giving you the perfect chance for some relaxation & self-reflection time.
Practice Mindfulness

Mindfulness is hard. It takes time to practice. However, it will rewire your brain to be naturally more grateful.

Being with people who truly feel at home can help you self-reflect on everything in life, ease your anxiety, and genuinely help you be more grateful for being who you are and having them in life.
