Soil of Appreciation | Living From a Compass of Gratitude
by Jordyn Roe
It is easy to get caught in the illusion that by accumulating more, we can create a fertile ground for happiness to bloom from. We may fall for the idea that it takes the right circumstances to brew up that soul contentment we crave and to finally feel "arrived" in ourselves. Yet, this concept keeps us on a hamster wheel running for that contentment that is forever "just out of reach". What if the secret recipe is actually about deepening into the soil of appreciation for what is here now? As we cultivate a mantra of appreciation in this meditation, we will let that remind us of how it feels to live from a foundation of gratitude independent of anything external. Beyond what we think we "need" in order to let ourselves feel grateful, is a ready and waiting — soul satisfaction. What becomes our experience when what guides us is a compass of gratitude and satisfaction?
