There is so much I want to share with you about birth, postpartum and the season I'm in. And I also recognize that we are all in different seasons of life.
So, for now, I want to invite you to join me in sinking into the abundance that already is, with a simple abundance gratitude practice you can return to in any season.
Honoring the abundance that's already here
Recently, while talking with one of my mentors about my maternity leave and how I desired for it to feel, something beautiful came through: honoring the abundance that is already here.
So often, I have prayed for success, more money, more clients, more accolades, more something. And yet the invitation my version of a higher power continues to offer me, over and over again, is one of contentment. Of slowing down enough to recognize, feel and honor the abundance that already surrounds me.
Putting on a new pair of glasses
Sometimes it feels as though we have to put on a special pair of glasses to truly see it. To feel it. To let ourselves experience gratitude for what already is, rather than constantly reaching for what could be.
And when we do? Something shifts.
It's almost like a reset for our nervous system. A gentle reminder that we are already surrounded by so much goodness. And the more we practice seeing it, the more naturally we begin to recognize it everywhere.
Not because we stop dreaming, desiring or growing, but because we learn that we can hold gratitude for what is while still making room for all that is yet to come.
A gentle abundance practice
So I want to invite you to pause for a moment and look around at the life you're living right now. Then ask yourself:
What is one piece of abundance in my life that I once prayed for, dreamed of, or deeply desired, but haven't stopped to fully appreciate lately?
A few ways to let this practice land in your body:
Write it down. Name it specifically: the person, the home, the client, the morning coffee, the version of you that exists now.
Remember the "before." Recall the season when this was only a wish. Let yourself feel how far you've come.
Feel it, don't just think it. Place a hand on your heart and breathe in the gratitude for a few slow breaths.
Share it. Tell someone. Gratitude grows when it's witnessed.
And maybe, just maybe, this is your reminder that some of the things you once wished for are the very things you're living today.
