How Gratitude Changed My Life

March 31, 2020

< back to blog

I'm going to be honest with you all. March hasn't been the greatest month for me. I've gotten into a car accident, gotten a speeding ticket, been completely confused about everything in my life due to this COVID-19 pandemic, had horrible fights with people I love and care about, gotten sick for the first time in years. It's been a wild ride.

I know this month and maybe even this year hasn't been easy so far for many of us. Everyone seems stressed out and unhappy, and I totally get why, because I've felt the same way plenty of times this year. One thing that has been keeping me going is gratitude.

Gratitude is thankfulness. Gratefulness.

You guys have heard me talk about the Youper app time and time again, but when I really started using it consistently, it impacted my life in such a positive way. Youper encourages me to practice gratitude every day. One of my favorite meditation exercises to do is the gratitude one. I had heard many people I watch on YouTube and listen to on podcasts discuss how they practice gratitude and how it's changed their life. I never thought that would actually work for me. Sure, I can think about what I'm grateful for, but don't I already do that?

But I didn't do it as much as I do now. You might think you know what you're grateful for, but you probably don't realize how many things you actually have until you write it down or purposely think about it every day. Before, I would think about what I was grateful for in passing or when something really good happened. Now, I think about it all the time. This is because I write it down on a regular basis in my Youper app, I journal about it in my journal, I think about it while I meditate. It kind of begins to stick with you.

Like I said before...this month hasn't been easy. This year started off great, and then this month, everything came crashing down. But finding myself automatically remembering even the smallest of small things in my life to be thankful for during the hardest times has been absolutely exhilarating for me. I'm so happy I started practicing gratitude because sometimes, life can leave you feeling like everything just sucks. You might even be questioning what you're even here for? But gratitude will remind you why. Every single time.
