It&#8217;s when most of us take the time to think about what we are grateful or thankful for. I sat down with <a title=\"Psychic Stevie ext. 5778\" href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/stevie-5778.aspx?utm_source=blog-articles&amp;utm_medium=blog-articles&amp;utm_campaign=cta-psychic-stevie-ext-5778\"><strong>Psychic Stevie ext. 5778<\/strong><\/a> to get her thoughts about how to feel more grateful, <a title=\"A Life Full of Gratitude\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/a-life-full-of-gratitude.html\/\"><strong>how to appreciate the little things in life<\/strong><\/a>, and how to show our loved ones that they&#8217;re appreciated.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Psychic Stevie ext. 5778\" href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/stevie-5778.aspx?utm_source=blog-articles&amp;utm_medium=blog-articles&amp;utm_campaign=cta-psychic-stevie-ext-5778\"><em><strong>Your detailed relationship reading is waiting! Click here to learn more about Psychic Stevie ext. 5778<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How goes gratitude work?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Gratitude is the key to manifestation. By staying in a state of gratitude you naturally raise your vibration and with that, you are a completely open channel to receiving your desires. However, the reverse is also true. If you stay in a ungrateful space, you will be in a very low vibration and therefore open to more things that will match that space. <a title=\"The Law of Gratitude: Create Abundance\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2014\/02\/law-gratitude-create-abundance.html\"><strong>You are a magnet\u2014remember that!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What if I feel like I have nothing to be grateful for?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>A couple years ago I was going through a particularly difficult time. All I saw was what wasn\u2019t working and how bad I felt. I knew I had to do something to pull myself out of the rabbit hole I was entering. So, I bought myself an inexpensive $3 blank journal, which I call my Appreciation Journal. On the inside cover I wrote, &#8220;<em>My Appreciation Journal.&#8221; <\/em>This journal would serve as a daily reminder of all the good showered on me by the universe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting Started<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I admit that it was hard to get started, because I was not able to see anything good. But, I made myself write things. I was grateful that my aging dog played like he was a puppy at the park. I was grateful for the coupon I found at the store next to an item I was going to buy. I even included that I liked an outfit someone else was wearing at the coffee shop. Every day I wrote down as many things as I could think of, and I came to realize that I had many things to be grateful for in a single day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For the Dark Days<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On those dark, challenging days, when I&#8217;m feeling in the pits, I pick up my journal, open it to a random page, and read it. Just reading what I&#8217;m grateful for puts me in a better place. <a title=\"3 Ways Gratitude Can Change Your Life\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/11\/3-ways-gratitude-can-change-your-life.html\/\"><strong>This activity has turned my life around<\/strong><\/a>, and it has made me a stronger magnet for the things I do want in my life, rather than the things I do not want in my life.<\/p>\n<p>If you are struggling with challenges that bring you down, and you want to attract good things, I suggest you start an appreciation journal of your own.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How can I learn to be grateful for the small things in life?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, we are looking for &#8220;grand gestures&#8221; from the universe and we think we can only be grateful for those things. That&#8217;s simply not true. The little things should be appreciated, too. Put yourself back into the headspace of your five-year-old self. Remember how you could turn a hairbrush into a microphone or build a fort out of blankets? Be that kid again and observe the world around you. See the butterflies, hear the music and get lost in it all. Appreciate what is around you, no matter how great or how small!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How can I show my loved ones that I&#8217;m grateful for them?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>We tend to take our loved ones for granted and because we do that, they often feel unappreciated. Let&#8217;s stop doing that. It&#8217;s important to tell those around you how you feel about them. Let them know that you notice everything they do for you. Even though you take love for granted, you don&#8217;t mean to, but be conscious of it. Tell and show your loved ones that you are grateful for them and do it often. Everyone likes to be shown appreciation for the kind things they do for others. Many of my callers say that they wished their loved ones, friends, coworkers or bosses recognized and appreciated what they did for them. Chances are, your loved ones feel the same way.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, <a title=\"Psychic Stevie ext. 5778\" href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/stevie-5778.aspx?utm_source=blog-articles&amp;utm_medium=blog-articles&amp;utm_campaign=cta-psychic-stevie-ext-5778\"><strong>Psychic Stevie<\/strong><\/a>, for your wise words.
