Feeling happy?

The signal that our life is aligned with our authentic needs and values. Not the absence of pain but the presence of meaning and connection.

The unmet need

Continued alignment with what we truly value; relationships and work that nourish rather than deplete; permission to flourish.

A question to sit with

What conditions are allowing this happiness? How can I notice and honor what's working, not just what's wrong?

What to do right now

Take five minutes to notice and name what is going well in your life right now. Write down three things that are working. Say to yourself: "I am allowed to feel good. I deserve this happiness."
