I have always been an avid reader right back since being a young child. I did give reading a spell for a little while but only because I could never find the time, or when I did have some time to spare the book wasn’t with me. Then.... I discovered Kindle on the Ipad, I am now back reading at a furious pace.
I love the selection of books, I love the fact that whilst hubby is watching footy I can be in the same room with the backlit Ipad and read my book. Now I have the time and a world of books at my fingertips.
Just recently I added to my collection the book ‘The Magic’ by Rhonda Byrne also known for ‘The Secret’. So far I have been like a sponge reading page by page, chapter by chapter. What an amazing book. One of the chapters suggests waking every morning and being thankful what the day lies ahead and saying ‘thank you, thank you, thank you three times.
Along with doing the suggestions after each chapter I have also been participating in the 30 Day Gratitude Challenge. Since adopting more of a gratitude and thank you nature to the beginning of my day, I have seen remarkable shifts in my well-being, my health and my thinking.
It is a well documented, scientific, fact that coming from a ‘good place’ , a place of gratitude, appreciation and thankfulness the feel good hormone, Serotonin increases. Also, if you give someone a gift, compliment or a gesture of gratitude, their levels of Serotonin rise. Amazingly, anyone in the room witnessing this act of gratitude, goodwill or thankfulness also sees a significant rise in their Serotonin levels.
Who would you like to give the gift of a rise in the feel good hormone? Everyone benefits, imagine if all of Australia, or might I suggest the world had a lift in Serotonin every day, would the world be the same place today as it was yesterday?
