Quick Trick for Daily Happiness

Posted in Paths to Bliss, Quick Tricks at 12:22 pm

Today’s trick explores an idea that I’ve written about here before: gratitude. Here’s a quick trick for you: Gratitude is the secret to happiness. Easy to say, hard to do.


One of the fastest paths to bliss is gratitude. If we can be grateful for the things in our lives right now, few things seem out of place and we are that much closer to a state of Allowing. Thanking God or the Universe for a meal is called “saying grace” for a reason–when we are grateful for what we have, we are in a state of grace. What things in your life can you say grace over?

Here are some suggestions: your favorite mug, your soft sheets, the smile from a stranger, a bit of synchronicity that made your life easier, awareness of energy flowing in your direction, a kind word just when you need it. Take a moment today to notice these things and be grateful for them.
