What Is Your Everyday Miracle?

Every new day is a miracle and thank you Tony for the opportunity to not take that for granted. God bless 🙏🏻

Such a simple yet powerful meditation… Each morning I arise and look forward to the day and every day. I am healthy, with no pain whatsoever, and I am so grateful for that miracle.

This was lovely. I enjoyed the self-guided 5 min gratitude practice at the end. There is so much for which to be grateful, even in these challenging, turbulent times.: The wonders of the natural world. Science! Boundless love. Technology that enables InsightTimer, with all the wisdom it delivers to help guide us on the path. And you, Tony! Deep bow, metta and thank you!!! 🙏 🌞🌷

A miracle in and of itself that people such as you can comfort so many in this way..and beautiful music to end with..that too is a blessing.
