The Stress Prescription

Elissa Epel

As you conclude your week-long journey to reduce stress and enhance well-being, the final focus is on cultivating gratitude—a practice that elevates mood, strengthens relationships, and helps counter the brain’s tendency to fixate on negativity. Begin your mornings with moments of thankfulness by reflecting on what excites you, the people or things you appreciate, and even small comforts like a warm drink or sunlight. This primes your mind to notice positivity throughout the day, fostering resilience when challenges arise. In the evening, reflect on what brought you joy, exceeded expectations, or made you proud, reinforcing your ability to manage stress. Writing these reflections, sharing them with loved ones, or keeping a gratitude jar can deepen their impact. By making gratitude a daily habit, you’ll nurture happiness, strengthen purpose, and build lasting resilience to face life’s challenges with confidence.
