Around 400 participants took part in this study, and more than 30% of those who had trouble sleeping found that being thankful actually improved sleep quality. Even though it may appear difficult, thinking grateful thoughts before bedtime helps a lot of people sleep better and longer.

    I have experienced insomnia for many years, mainly because of stress. At some point I did write what I was grateful for and I remember it being helping. Somewhere along the line I forgot I had done that and your article reminded of that time. So, I will begin again and see how this works. Thank you so much.
