Spirit, out of the well of our humble hearts, may you teach us to be grateful for everything.

There is a remarkable connection between gratitude and humility. From a posture of humility, gratitude will blossom and flow because gratitude creates a new sense of security, well-being, and confidence.

You probably have read and heard enough about the many benefits of gratitude:

  1. Better sleep
  2. Helps you get closer to God, Buddha or your higher power
  3. Reduces physical pain
  4. Improves focus and productivity
  5. More joyful
  6. Improves health
  7. Less anxious
  8. Able to cultivate healthier relationships
  9. More confidence

But how do you get there?
