Rule # 1.  Seek Gratitude

Research has shown that daily practices in gratitude help people achieve happiness, greater self-satisfaction, and most importantly, reduce stress.  Our goal was to create a mindset that helped us seek gratitude in our every day environments and create a positive spin on these uncertain times. 

Rule #2.  Get Moving

All you need to do to get started is walk out your front door.  Run, walk, bike, roll, whatever gets you moving is fine with us! 

Rule #3.  Find Three Things 

Your mission is to keep moving until you find 3 things that make you feel grateful.  Think of it as a gratitude treasure hunt. Did your neighborhood kids color beautiful artwork with sidewalk chalk?  Is your neighbor’s garden breathtakingly gorgeous due to all of the extra time she’s been putting in being home more these days?  Did you see a message of peace along the way?  

Rule #4. Document 

Take pictures.  Either mental pictures, or actual pictures and write them down when you come home so you’ll think of them again.  If you’d like to participate in our challenge with us, share your pictures on social medial with the hashtags, #gratitudetracing and #movewithaccesssurf.
