TAP 388 - All You Need, You Already Have - Rerun

Summary:  In this episode I talk about how typically all our needs are met.  I believe this ties into anxiety in a big way as we're often focused on what we don't have instead of what we do have.

Keep a one-paragraph gratitude journal every evening. When you meet someone, bow to them (in your mind) out of respect. You might touch your heart or offer them a smile if that helps. When you eat, say a little prayer of thanks to everyone who made your meal possible (farmers, cooks, transporters, their families, etc.). Appreciate every bite if you can. Before you start a new activity (a work task, a workout, a meeting), pause and ask yourself what your intention is for this activity. Is it focused on helping others? When you are done with an activity, show respect for others, your environment and your equipment by respectfully and mindfully cleaning up, instead of rushing to the next activity.
