During the exercise, I found myself increasingly having more energy and liveliness in the morning, less stressed and overwhelmed, and more appreciative of the moments I spent with my friends in a way where I wanted to savor them

I think the gratitude letter was more helpful because it got me to be more direct and explicit with my gratitude by putting me in a position where I was going to actively tell someone why I am grateful for them. To write a letter, you have to be introspective and reflective and think deeply about what the person’s importance is to you. In this way, I was going a lot further than the first exercise in terms of acknowledging and expressing my gratitude toward people in my life. Going forward, I think I want to find a way to incorporate the gratitude letter into my life, but I would probably make some changes. I don’t want to write a full-blown letter every time, but it’d be beneficial and important for me to text people in my life a short message explaining my gratitude for them more often. I think this will allow me to actively express gratitude and appreciation and will allow to let a lot of different people in my life know what they mean to me.
