Robert Emmons—editor-in-chief of the \u003ci\u003eJournal of Positive Psychology\u003c\/i\u003e—examines what it means to think and feel gratefully in \u003ci\u003eThanks\u003c\/i\u003e! and invites readers to learn how to put this powerful emotion into practice. Scientifically speaking, regular grateful thinking can increase happiness by as much as 25 percent, while keeping a gratitude journal for as little as three weeks results in better sleep and more energy. But there's more than science to embrace here: Emmons also bolsters the case for gratitude by weaving in writings of philosophers, novelists, and theologians that illustrate all the benefits grateful living brings. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Houghton Mifflin Harcourt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47013347164400,"sku":"9780547085739","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780547085739_p0.jpg?v=1763781729","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780547085739","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
