Dr. Richard Gerhauser recommends practicing gratitude. He cites scientific studies showing greater gratitude scores were associated with: lower hemoglobin A1c blood levels, a marker of blood sugar control in diabetics; improvements in heart rate variability scores reflecting balance of the autonomic nervous system; and higher heart rate variability correlates with lower risk of cardiovascular disease and overall better health. Healthcare workers and teachers who practice gratitude have less burnout; gratitude increases mental well-being, which can help boost the immune system and help fend off illnesses; practicing gratitude has been shown to help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, while also improving mood; gratitude practices can boost optimism, which has been connected to factors consistent with healthy aging: less chronic disease, healthy cognitive function, and good physical function. Are the mechanisms causing these benefits from practicing gratitude purely physiologic or are other factors entering in, assuming these are valid findings?
