The Happiness Meditation
by Elise Bialylew
‘Action without vision is only passing time, vision without action is merely
day dreaming, but vision with action can change the world.’
Nelson Mandela
This new Happiness guided meditation practice gives you an opportunity to reflect on your life and
create a vision for your deepest happiness. I like to do this meditation regularly throughout the year, as a way of staying anchored to the things that are most important to me.
Even if you already have a vision for your own flourishing, this practice offers you a way of reflecting on and reimagining what will truly make you happy. If, while practising this meditation, your vision seems unclear or nothing comes to mind, just allow that to be as it is. Sometimes the mind needs more time and space to ponder these important questions. Be patient and try the practice for a few days in a row.
Mindfulness in Motion
Try bringing mindfulness to walking today. It’s a simple practice of bringing your attention to the body as you walk, noticing the sensations of your feet touching the ground from one step to the next and unhooking from thoughts as they pull you into the future or the past. It’s a practice that takes time to get used to, but it’s a great way to bring mindfulness to motion as you move through the day.
