Pausing to acknowledge the good things in your life not only makes you happier; it may also improve your health. Studies have shown that people who regularly practice gratitude experience lowered blood pressure, feel less hostile, and are more likely to quit smoking and lose weight.

Also, make a practice of writing down three good things that happened each day before you go to bed.
