Wherever he would go, he would ask to talk to the people who were considered as the \u201cwise\u201d ones. To each of them, he asked if they had any daily spiritual practice, something that would support them on a daily basis. Across cultures and beyond the variations of the practices themselves, he found three key elements that they all shared:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>State a sacred <strong>intention<\/strong> for your day: What do you want your day to be? It might be: being more patient with a co-worker or a child, feeling joyful, being more attentive to a person\u2026<\/li>\n<li>Give <strong>gratitude<\/strong> for something: You may be grateful for the beautiful weather that morning, for feeling healthy, for having a good neighbor, for having a job\u2026<\/li>\n<li>Take a <strong>life affirming action<\/strong>, do something that says <strong>\u201cyes\u201d to life<\/strong>, something that brings you <strong>joy<\/strong>; it can be something very simple and mundane, something that you will do for yourself.<!--more--><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Most people would think about this during their morning <a title=\"Meditation Tips: Your Resource Corner\" href=\"https:\/\/shamanicspiritualhealing.com\/mindfulness-meditation\/meditation-tips-resource-corner\/\" target=\"_blank\">meditation<\/a> but you can equally do it when you are in the shower or washing your teeth, for instance.

You will pretty soon discover that those simple practices will color your day and help you feel more centered, more aware and present.<\/p>\n<p>If you want, at night, you may briefly touch base with those three key elements that you had selected for your day and reflect upon the way things may have enfolded.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>B\u00e9atrice<\/em> | Contemporary Shamanic Healer<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:allowingthelight@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">allowingthelight@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>B\u00e9atrice Pouligny<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Allowing The Light<\/strong><br \/>\nSeptember 2011<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An anthropologist traveled around the globe and studied many different cultures.
