Is it possible to have Contentment in our daily life? I believe it is, even in the midst of chaos, stress and anxiety. Try this: take a deep breath or two; relax. Lower your shoulders. Relax your fingers and toes. Breathe in again and calm your mind. Read this virtue card of Contentment. Breathe it in, feel it. Remember a time when you felt contentment. What was it like?
How can we find Contentment in troubled times?
Whenever I read this virtue card, I am hopeful. I can reflect on each line and remember how to be content. I have experienced contentment. But how can I bring it into my daily life, in the midst of stress and anxiety? See if these ways are helpful to you.
Have a beautiful day!
