Its objective is to show us how gratitude is a transformative attitude towards our approach to human life. It is the feeling of appreciation and gratitude towards the good things in life, no matter how small or big they are. Gratitude is not just a feeling but an action that can be practiced every day. It is a powerful tool that can improve our physical and mental well-being, strengthen our relationships, and increase our overall happiness. We learn that there are numerous benefits to practicing gratitude daily. It can improve our physical and mental health, increase happiness and life satisfaction, and strengthen our relationships. It also focuses on There are many ways to practice gratitude, but the key is to make it a daily habit. Some ways to practice gratitude include keeping a gratitude journal, expressing gratitude to others, practicing mindfulness, and focusing on the positive things in life Gary, 2023). It is important to find the method that works best for us and make it part of our daily routine.
THE APPLICATION OF POSITIVE PSHYCHOLOGY IN MY LIFE 7 Positive psychology consists of the study of people's good experiences and traits. That is, it studies the strengths, virtues, motivations, and capabilities of human beings. And how these characteristics help improve lifestyle and increase personal development. Positive psychology has many important aspects such as gratitude. We always have something to be grateful for. Practicing gratitude is one of the things that brings the most well-being (Mirzaei et al., 2022). The fact of saying thank you, apart from being something we do or should do every day, causes a series of personal benefits that make this simple fact of being grateful a great recipe to increase our well-being. Gratitude connects with kindness, beauty, hope, and humor to reduce distress. The ability to be grateful allows us to identify the positive aspects that have happened to us in our lives Gary, 2023). Another aspect that we can mention is Consciousness, which is what allows us to realize what surrounds us. Therefore, when we talk about consciousness we are referring to: The ability to know our environment and locate ourselves in it, that is, lucidity. The ability to reflect on reality and assume a position regarding it. The ability to judge our actions from a moral perspective, good or bad. Gratitude December 4/2023
