Christian Gratitude Journal, 7 Steps to Life-Changing Appreciation

I wrote this journal because I needed it! I wanted to thrive and not just survive. I needed to change and somehow find more joy. Three years ago, I began researching into healing relationships and brain science and discovered the power of appreciation and prayer.

Because of my training in relational brain skills, I knew I could improve my mood by a repeated exposure to a state of gratitude.

By developing these exercises to help me during my times with God, I made a personal journey from overwhelm to peace. As I used the pages of this journal, I found a peace and joy that enriched my relationships and improved the quality of my life.

I relived happy memories, grew in my relationship with God, and communicated more openly about my experiences. As a result, I became happier and helped my family, church and others grow in joy.

This gratitude journal uniquely combines what you need to feel positive, happier, and closer to God and others.

- An understanding of brain science and insights from Scripture;
- Prompts to go deeper in your relationship with God;
- Clear, stimulating and easy to follow exercises;
- Deep and relevant insight into how to do appreciation that works;
- A wide variety of interesting topics;
- Authentic examples that show how I used the exercises.

You will feel better after doing the exercises. One reviewer says,
"This is a fabulous book that helps you look at the good things in your life. It helped to lift me out of depression."
