A Vibrant Life Practice

This week, Contemplative Living invites us to explore the components of a vibrant life practice. We are called to embody Love, Compassion, and Peace in all we do. As we fill our hearts with lovingkindness, our wish for all beings is simple: May they be happy. Open your heart and experience the true joy that blesses you and those around you. Discovering how to appreciate the journey truly will bring contentment into your life. Ask yourself – am I holding on when I should be releasing what no longer serves me? Acknowledge and show kindness towards your inner self. Discard anything hidden in your depths that does not serve the most authentic version of who you are.

We are challenged to embody Love, Compassion, and Peace.

Embodying love, compassion, and peace is not just an act of kindness towards others but also a way to nurture our own soul. It starts with acknowledging the interconnectedness of all beings and realizing that we are all part of the same universe.

Practicing love means treating everyone with empathy, respect, and understanding regardless of their race, gender or social status.

Compassion involves putting ourselves in other people’s shoes and offering help where it’s needed without judgment.

Peace requires us to let go of anger, fear, or resentment so that we can live harmoniously with one another.

It may seem like a daunting task at first glance, but embodying love, compassion, and peace can be achieved through small actions. Such as smiling at strangers on the street or lending an ear to someone who needs it.

The more we practice these qualities daily; they begin to become second nature leading us down a path towards greater inner peace, which then reflects out into our communities.

Develop an openhearted feeling that blesses others and oneself with spirited joy.

Developing an openhearted feeling is a key component of living a vibrant life. When we approach others and ourselves with an open heart, we are able to connect on a deeper level and experience the world in a more meaningful way.

An openhearted feeling can take many forms. It may be expressed through kindness, compassion, generosity, or simply being present with someone. Whatever form it takes, the important thing is that we cultivate this feeling within ourselves and make it a part of our daily practice.

Not only does an openhearted feeling bless others with spirited joy, but it also brings us immense joy as well. When we give freely from the heart without expecting anything in return, we tap into a sense of abundance that transcends material possessions or external circumstances.

So if you want to live a vibrant life full of love and joy, start by developing an openhearted feeling towards yourself and those around you. It may take time and effort to cultivate this mindset, but the rewards are immeasurable.

Clear out your internal baggage in order to become the best version of yourself.

Clearing out your internal baggage is crucial to becoming the best version of yourself. We all carry emotional wounds and negative beliefs that can hold us back from living a vibrant life. It takes courage and determination to confront these issues head-on. But the reward is worth it: greater self-awareness, heightened empathy for others, and a deeper sense of inner peace.

To start this process, take some time to reflect on what might be holding you back. Are there past traumas or painful memories that still trigger strong emotions? Do you have limiting beliefs about yourself that are keeping you stuck in old patterns? Once you’ve identified your internal baggage, try talking with a trusted friend or therapist who can help guide you through the healing process.

Remember that clearing out your internal baggage isn’t a one-time event – it’s an ongoing practice. You’ll need to continue checking in with yourself regularly and being mindful of any negative thoughts or emotions that arise. But by doing so, you’ll gradually create more space for positivity, joy, and growth in your life. Ultimately allowing you to become the best version of yourself.
