Simply journaling for five minutes a day about what we are grateful for can enhance our long-term happiness by over 10% (Emmons & McCullough, 2003).

FAQ
Answers to our most frequently asked questions below:
Each lesson has two components – a reflection and an action. The reflection will take no longer than a few minutes. The action may take a little bit longer and will usually require you to plan in advance.
Nothing! I would love it if you’re able to complete each lesson on consecutive days, but the course won’t disappear and you’ll be able to access the lessons any time you want.
No! I’m passionate about gratitude and think every educator needs to make this a part of their daily routine.
We’re encouraging all people taking the course to take advantage of the comments section in each lesson. A good starting point would be to share aspects of your reflection and any outcome from the action you took.
