3 Daily Gratitude Practices to Raise Your Vibration

Gratitude is the act of being thankful for what you have, regardless of external circumstances. It’s often missing from manifestation teachings, but being grateful is a prerequisite for true abundance. When you consistently vibrate at a high frequency, you are subconsciously calling more good into your life.

Gratitude is one of the highest vibrational states that you can experience. When you make the conscious effort to transmute your negative emotions into those of love, peace, and gratitude, the world around you changes. 

Are you ready for limitless abundance? Here are three easy ways to practice gratitude every day.

1. Start a gratitude journal

An easy way to build your gratitude muscle is by keeping a daily journal. You can buy a small notebook or create a note in your phone. Every day before bed, write down at least three things you are grateful for.

If you can’t think of anything, start with the basics. Do you have a roof over your head, food in your fridge, and people who love you? I imagine you at least have your breath and the ability to read. Great—write those down.

It doesn’t matter how awful your day was. Those are actually the best days to write in your journal—because you’re reprogramming your mind to find peace amidst the chaos. You’re teaching your body that you are safe, even when the external world is a shit show.

2. Trade your complaints for gratitude

Complaints are just signals pointing to where your soul craves alignment. It’s okay to be aware of your aches, pains and problems, but sitting in negativity won’t make anything better.

When I notice myself complaining now, I finish the sentence with gratitude.

“My knees hurt so bad…and I’m grateful for my mobility.”

You won’t be a master at it right away, but over time, the habit will form. The key is to be consistent and not shame yourself for slipping up.

3. Turn mealtime into a gratitude ritual

One of my favourite parts of the day is sitting at the dinner table with my family and sharing what we’re grateful for.

There’s something so heartwarming about listening to my three-year-old express his gratitude for “you, and you, and you,” as he points around the table.

And then there’s my four-year-old, who usually compliments the chefs after his first bite: “Mummy Hans, you’re such a great cook, and Mummy Leighton is an awesome baker.” When we ask him what he’s grateful for, he always includes himself — and reminds us to do the same.

Giving a child language to express their joy is incredibly special. Sharing gratitude at the dinner table is a beautiful way to model positive behaviour for the little people in your life.

A small practice can make a big impact. I invite you to commit to one of these practices for the week and see how it goes. Notice how your thoughts and feelings change. Notice how your body feels. Look for synchronicities, stay open, and allow abundance to flow into your life. Remember—Source has an infinite supply of it. You just have to tap in and claim what’s already yours.
