6 Share with a friend. If you are going on a gratitude walk, consider inviting a friend or family member to join you. Or share a quiet moment and special thought with them. Let them know how they have touched, changed or made a difference in your life. You’ll both feel better because of it! 7 Get involved. Donating your money, time or talent to a cause you believe in can amplify your experience of gratitude quickly. Remember what you don’t have in money, you can always give in time, so don’t let the story of “no money” stop you from making a difference in the world. Practice random acts of kindness whenever and however you can. As you begin a gratitude practice, be gentle with yourself. Life is a journey. Every day brings with it it’s own lessons of expansion or contraction – but no matter what your day brings, find something in it to be grateful for. The more you practice the easier it will become and the more you will notice your life shifting and changing around you. Don’t wait to begin your gratitude practice – start now. Any blank piece of paper will do. There is never a right or wrong way to begin, the important part is that you do! Live fully, really lean into the feelings of gratitude to amplify their vibration, and enjoy as your life begins to unfold in a beautiful new direction!
