The Art of Appreciation
Our brains are wired to look for problems (danger). “Is that a tiger over there? I better run!” The art of appreciation is the conscious development of our sense of gratitude in order to rewire our brains to also look for what is going well.
The goal of developing an appreciation practice is not to squash or deny feelings of sadness, grief, or anger — but to bring moments of reprieve and joy when things are hard. And to make easy times even better.
This 11-page booklet includes information about the science of gratitude, as well as simple, science-backed methods for reducing stress and increasing joy through different practices of gratitude.
