This guided journal was created out of my need to structure my mindset in a manner that promoted a sense of OK-ness and well-being by capturing my blessings. Consciously I knew that negative thinking can and will affect my overall health negatively just as the opposite is true, positive thinking can affect my overall health positively.

 

Exercising gratitude can help to release endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine while reducing stress hormones. It also helps to decrease blood pressure, lower heart rate and even improve your mood.

 

So, I made a choice. Not only will I intentionally make it a practice to capture my blessings on a regular basis, but I will take a perceived negative and make something positive from it. This is when the My Blessing Book was birthed. Why not share what was helpful to me with anyone who wanted it or could benefit from it? To take it a step further, as a part of my grieving and recovery process, I decided to dedicate and release this guided journal on the 1st anniversary of my mother, Dr. Maude T. Jacobs' passing, in honor of her life of service and the blessing she was to so many. I know in my heart that my mother would want me to live a fulfilled life and not one consumed by pain and anguish. With that in mind, I am gifting you a pathway to an improved quality of life. I encourage you to utilize this guided 52-week journal as a means of not only capturing your blessings weekly, but you can use it as a tool to heal, or even a way to share your experiences with others. You can keep this journal to share the things you are grateful for whether it be for yourself or even if it's expressing thoughts and feelings to your loved ones, as a source of encouragement now and generations to come. Allow your imagination to roam without limits on how and ways you can use this journal. Use it for individual purposes or as a group activity, a supplement to a course, or a gift to someone. No matter how you utilize it, may gratitude grow!
