I have long been a fan of Tara Brach and have read all her books and listened to many many of her class recordings from years ago.
Last week, I discovered a “new to me” book called “Trusting the Gold” which has some of her practices and each of them were profound and helpful to me.
In one chapter she talks about Zen master Sono who was known to lead people to enlightenment by using the affirmation “thank you for everything; I have no complaints whatsoever.”
I loved this so much that I added a daily reminder to my calendar at 2pm with the exact phrase. And every day since when it pops up, I smile and say it out loud to myself.
It’s been an excellent way to ground myself and remind myself of the way I want to be in the world.
Yes to gratitude.
