Welcome to Day 12 - Your Grateful Heart
Today's meditation will focus on gratitude, called the prayer of affluence, because gratitude for what we have draws more abundance to us. How many times a day do we give thanks—to the Universe, to our friends and family, or to people we encounter each day? We have so many things in our life to be grateful for. Beyond any material possessions, health is a gift, a child's smile is a gift, watching the sun rise and set is a gift, waking up in the morning is the ultimate gift of another day of life.
To live in a state of gratitude, we have to learn to expand our awareness of the gifts we have been given, the bounty the unlimited Universe has handed to us for simply being. Meditation is the ultimate path to expanded awareness. Deepak Chopra writes, "The overall purpose of meditation is...learning to relate to awareness itself, the purest level of experience."
