Life Force energy, or Qi, can get stuck. When this happens, it changes how you feel and can even contribute to disease.Emotions, like sadness and despair, contributes to Qi becoming stagnant.This stuck energy stays stuck unless you do something to get the QI flowing. Stuck energy becomes a negative force within us. Likewise, energy that stays flowing helps us to feel good. So if thoughts of despair and sadness contribute to slowing and stopping the flow of Qi, the opposite can be said of thoughts of gratitude and thankfulness. These thoughts can help keep our Qi energy flowing.
In this video by "Action for Happiness", Dr. Martin Seligman recommends doing a "Three good things exercise" at the end of each day for a week. "You write down 3 things that went well today. Doing this changes your focus on the things that go well in your life. It breaks up depression and increases happiness" he reports.
Being grateful can help people cope with stress and can even have a beneficial effect on heart rate. This action is easy to do yet its benefits have been scientifically proven. In tests, people who tried it each night for just one week were happier and less depressed one month, three months and six months later.
