the power of gratitude. thank you 2011! …

Thank you 2011!  For the laughter you brought and the tears that fell.  For the lessons learned and memories to cherish.

The power of gratitude.  What does that mean to you?  Most importantly, what can it do for you?

Along with the many wonderful things this year has brought, you may have had some testing moments.  If you’re not aware of the concept already, gratitude in those moments is more powerful than we could even imagine.  Louise Hay is adamant that even in difficult situations, there is a finer silver lining and even in those moments, something positive lies in wait.

Being in a place of gratitude changes your vibration.  Changing to a higher vibration has the ability to comply with the Universal Law of Attraction.  This simply means that we attract what we think about and the frequency in which we are vibrating.  I believe we would all want more of what we do and not what we don’t.

Leaving 2011, take some quiet time and make a list of all that you are grateful for.  And perhaps, make a list of moments that didn’t top as your favorite.  There is much truth to the saying “Attitude of Gratitude” and the benefits it offers one’s body and spirit.  Put yourself in that place of ultimate gratitude.  Now take a look at your not so favorite moments and see if you can be thankful for even them.  Perhaps there was an unexpected positive outcome that you can be grateful for.

This is an amazing way to look over your past year in a positive light.  Having put yourself in a higher vibration, I guarentee, it will put you in a far happier mindframe moving into 2012.
