After others and I have gone through the same 1st Edition a few times I decided to create a 2nd Edition with all new quotes to ponder. Simple and guided 90-day journal filled with thought provoking quotes to add to and deepen the wisdom inside you. This journal is excellent for the person who is new to journaling, and simply feels as if they don't know where to begin. In 2017, I first began to journal using a similar format. It has helped me immensely and from that a desire to write and dig deeper into each quote and the person who spoke it. The opportunity to learn and become a person of knowledge lies within these pages. As a bonus, there is a section to write your daily gratitude.“

The practice of gratitude can have dramatic and lasting effects in a person’s life,” said Robert A. Emmons, professor of psychology at UC Davis and a leading scientific expert on the science of gratitude. “It can lower blood pressure, improve immune function and facilitate more efficient sleep. Gratitude reduces lifetime risk for depression, anxiety and substance abuse disorders, and is a key resiliency factor in the prevention of suicide,” he said.The science of gratitude:
- Keeping a gratitude diary for two weeks produced sustained reductions in perceived stress (28 percent) and depression (16 percent) in health-care practitioners.
-Gratitude is related to 23 percent lower levels of stress hormones (cortisol).
-Practicing gratitude led to a 7-percent reduction in biomarkers of inflammation in patients with congestive heart failure.
-Two gratitude activities (counting blessings and gratitude letter writing) reduced the risk of depression in at-risk patients by 41 percent over a six month period.
-Dietary fat intake is reduced by as much as 25 percent when people are keeping a gratitude journal.
-A daily gratitude practice can decelerate the effects of neurodegeneration (as measured by a 9 percent increase in verbal fluency) that occurs with increasing age.
-Grateful people have 16 percent lower diastolic blood pressure and 10 percent lower systolic blood pressure compared to those less grateful.
-Grateful patients with Stage B asymptomatic heart failure were 16 percent less depressed, 20 percent less fatigued and 18 percent more likely to believe they could control the symptoms of their illness compared to those less grateful.
-Older adults administered the neuropeptide oxytocin showed a 12 percent increase in gratitude compared to those given a placebo
-Writing a letter of gratitude reduced feelings of hopelessness in 88 percent of suicidal inpatients and increased levels of optimism in 94 percent of them.
-Grateful people (including people grateful to God) have between 9-13 percent lower levels of Hemoglobin A1c, a key marker of glucose control that plays a significant role in the diagnosis of diabetes.
-Gratitude is related to a 10 percent improvement in sleep quality in patients with chronic pain, 76 percent of whom had insomnia, and 19 percent lower depression levels.https://health.ucdavis.edu/medicalcenter/features/2015-2016/11/20151125_gratitude.html
