This week's Contemplative Living Podcast investigates attaining High-Spirited Awareness. Becoming this sort of person requires one to be energetic, upbeat and engaged in stimulating and enjoyable activities. Through enthusiasm, we are able to see the world around us with renewed appreciation. We can break away from the self-imposed stories that limit our horizons and recognize the greater reality of which we are part. This leads to a greater connection with life itself, more strength and creativity, and a continuous flow of invigorating energy that propels us forward. Understandably, when we realize how fleeting time is, our passion for life increases all the more!
