Stoic Gratitude Training: See the Magic of Reality to Find Awe in the Ordinary
from The Stoic Handbook with Jon Brooks
Most of what keeps you alive is invisible to you right now. The food and water that arrived without you thinking about it. The atmosphere holding at exactly the right balance. The sheer unlikelihood of having been born at all. This guided meditation is about noticing it again.We let ourselves go numb to ordinary life, and I think that is a quiet mistake. So we slow down and try to feel the awe in a raindrop, in a single cold breath. Find somewhere quiet before you press play.
