This month I’ve explored orienting my weeks around the chakras. Today is Thursday, the 4th day of the week, which brings me into that which has heart and meaning. The heart chakra is also the place of gratitude and sweetness, as well as “santosha” contentment.
Today is also the last day of June, a perfect day to steep in contentment and gratitude. Thus, I offer some of which has made my heart glad this month, and invite you to share your own list! (Note: gratitude welcomes redundancy.)
