ways being thankful can improve your life

感恩可以改善你的生活

Better sleep

更好的睡眠

Grateful people get more sleep each night.

A good night's sleep can make anyone thankful, but a study published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Research found the reverse is true, too. Grateful people get more hours of sleep per night, fall asleep more quickly and feel more refreshed upon waking. "This is the first study to show that a positive trait is related to good sleep quality above the effect of other personality traits," the study's authors wrote, adding it's "also the first to show ... gratitude is related to sleep and to explain why this occurs, suggesting future directions for research and novel clinical implications." As the GGSC puts it, "to sleep more soundly, count blessings, not sheep."

睡個好覺會讓人心存感激，但《身心研究雜志》上發表的一項研究發現，事實正好相反。感恩的人每晚睡眠時間更長，入睡更快，醒來后更有精神。該研究的作者寫道:“這是第一個表明積極的性格特征比其他性格特征更能影響睡眠質量的研究。”感恩與睡眠有關，并解釋為什么會發生這種情況，為未來的研究方向和新的臨床意義提供建議。”正如GGSC所說，“要想睡得更香，數一數祝福，而不是羊。”
