Gratitude or the practice of being grateful for what we have is an important tool to help you destress in a chaotic world.  Practicing gratitude increases the "happy" neurotransmitters in our brain to boost your mood, decrease stress and appreciate what you do have.  Gratitude also helps to improve your physical health.
