Gratitude apps!

In deference to CGCC's first ever "Week of Gratitude," I thought I'd see what kind of technology was out there to help all of us in our collective quest for increased positivity!

According to this Forbes article, "7 Scientifically Proven Benefits of Gratitude," gratitude has a positive impact on developing new relationships, physical and mental health, empathy, self-esteem, and even helps you sleep better! Our students are really feeling the pressure right now (and let's face it, so are we...), so gratitude activities may help them regain their equilibrium.

The Positive Psychology website recently (February 2021) published a post reviewing several gratitude apps - just click on the image below to link to the article!

Because personally...? I like a good side of snark with my gratitude - I am grateful for all those people out there whose sense of humor matches my own!

Which app caught your eye? I like the idea of the "3 Good Things" app (in the "keep your eye on these new gratitude apps" portion of the post), because even I could find just a few minutes in any given day to come up with 3 Good Things that I am grateful for.
