Acknowledging

Share it Please

“Real life isn't always going to be perfect or go our way, but the recurring acknowledgement of what is working in our lives can help us not only to survive but surmount our difficulties.”

Sarah Ban Breathnach



Becoming better at loving others is a powerful way of discovering the Presence within us. A particularly effective practice is to regularly acknowledge the good in others as well as in ourselves, regardless of whatever difficulties and challenges are present. We can experience the Presence in others powerfully when we practice acceptance and compassion, because these attitudes of mind allow us to see beyond our preferences and projections. Other people can be a portal through which we see the activity of the Presence when we pause daily to consider and acknowledge them.

Who in your life deserves your acknowledgement right now and how might you express your appreciation to how they have contributed to your wellbeing.

Seeing Good At Work
I have been through the book three times over three years, and am starting it again. This is not because the material in the book is not working, but because it is working so well! The weekly lessons keep me on track and focused on what is actually true and important, and help me experience more good in every area of my life. LS
