Picture this: We’re at the crystal booth, sipping lavender and catnip tea, and you ask, “Hey, how do you bring more gratitude into your day?”
You’re so in luck! I’ve got five simple, soul-nourishing ways that have seriously raised my vibe. Whether you’re riding high or feeling a bit underwhelmed, these gratitude practices are my go-to reset buttons. Let’s dive in.
5 Gratitude Practices That Raise Your Vibration
1. Make a Gratitude Jar: Gratitude Practices That Grow Happiness
You’ve probably seen one of these at someone’s office desk or on a shelf in a friend’s house, but hear me out.
Grab a jar (seriously, even a spaghetti sauce jar works), and charge it with love using a rose quartz. Make it your own using ribbon, washi tape, or a sticker that says something like “Abundance lives here.” Then, each day, jot down one thing you’re grateful for and toss it in.
Suddenly having a bad day? Open it up and read a few notes; it’s like spiritual sunshine in paper form.
Want a step-by-step? Here’s how to make your own gratitude jar. Or go full mystical with this crystal + candle charged version.
2. Try a Morning or Bedtime Gratitude Journal
Okay, this one is like journaling’s gentle cousin. Just grab a notebook and, before bed or after your morning oracle pull, write down 3 to 10 things you’re thankful for.
Could be your cozy socks.
Could be your cat not knocking over your altar today.
It could be that your favorite coffee tasted perfectly this morning. It all counts.

3. Spend 3 Seconds in a Mindful Gratitude Pause
This one’s for my folks who forget to sit still. Take a deep breath. Feel your heartbeat. Look at the moon. Whisper a quiet thank-you. These small pauses reconnect you to your magic.
Pro tip: Light your favorite candle or hold a grounding stone while doing this; it makes a two-minute break feel like a mini ritual.
4. Write a Quick Gratitude Letter or Text
This one’s pure heart energy. Write a note or send a quick text to someone who’s inspired you. It doesn’t have to be deep, just sincere. You’ll both feel the shift.
And if you’re feeling witchy? Read it aloud with a candle nearby and call it a spell of appreciation. Bonus: You don’t even have to send it. The magic works either way.
5. Take a Gratitude Walk and Notice Everything
Take a slow stroll.
Look at the leaves, the clouds, the cracks in the sidewalk. Every step, think of something you’re thankful for.
Whisper a little mantra as you go: “With each step, I honor my blessings.” Feels good, right?
Bonus Tip: Affirm Your Abundance
When stuff feels heavy or you’re caught in the scroll hole, say this out loud:
“I am thankful for all I have and all that’s on its way.”
Say it again. Out loud. It’s powerful. Especially if you mean it.
