Boxing Day

"When we start thinking about being grateful, we activate the feelings of gratitude in our bodies.  These feelings actually change our body chemistry and rewire our minds." Juliet Vorster

Boxing Day is a tradition started centuries ago where servants were given a "Christmas Box" from their employers.  This was a gift of gratitude for their service throughout the year.  Gratitude is such a good practice for us.  Just as anger and resentment change our body chemistry; so too does gratitude -- change our bodies and brains for the better.  Anger damages our immune system.  Gratitude supports our immune system.  For whom are you grateful today?  What service do you receive throughout the year for which you are grateful?
