Between Halloween sugar highs and December wish lists, November is the sweet spot to build real-deal gratitude—not as a holiday task, but a heart habit. Amy shares how gratitude lowers anxiety, strengthens relationships, and trains our brains to spot what’s good—then walks through simple family practices you can start today: table prompts, gratitude jars, weekly thank-you notes, mindful family walks, charitable giving, and the flip-the-list “already-have” exercise.

Key Takeaways

• Gratitude reduces stress and anxiety and refocuses attention on “what is,” not “what if.”

• Kids who practice gratitude tend to be happier, more empathetic, and sleep better.

• Make it practical: dinner-table prompts, gratitude jars, weekly thank-you notes, mindful walks, and “already-have” lists.
