No matter how cheery of a person you may be, it’s not always easy to keep your spirits up 100% of the time... we all have “one of those days.” This is where a mindfulness prayer can really come in handy.
I recently came across a short Native American prayer that is a reminder of the beauty and wonders of the world. Its few short lines speak to our most basic, human concerns.
It manifests joy, love, and peace. And most important — it reminds us to express thanks and gratitude. After all, no matter our circumstances, there is always something to be grateful for.
Take a deep breath and let your mind pore over the ancient words below:
Dear Great Spirit,
You are inside of me, within my very breath,
within each bird, each mighty mountain.
Your sweet touch reaches everything and I am well protected.
Thank you for this beautiful day before me.
May joy, love, peace and compassion be part of my life
and all those around me on this day.
I am healing and I am healed.
Sometimes when the world outside feels heavy, all we need to do is look within ourselves for that soul spark of joy and beauty!
