Spiritual Sunday

If Saturdays are Serenity Saturdays then are Sundays Spiritual Sundays? Sometimes I make it to church. It was the story of Jesus and the lepers - the one where he cures 12 and only one came back to say thanks. A  reminder of the power of Gratitude. Have you ever noticed how good you feel when someone appreciates you and says "thanks?" It makes you want to go out of the way for that person even more. You benefit when you say "thanks". Gratitude is the highest emotional energy, even higher than Love. High energy turns on your brain and your cells, making even more "feel good" hormones. Meditation and prayer relax and expand your mind. Meditation has been proven to boost your immune system, increase your brain size, reduce stress and repair DNA. A recent survey of successful people highlighted a common thread of daily meditation. Maybe a morning ritual of meditation and gratitude (focusing on what is good in our lives) would be a smashing way to start the day.
