What does it take to be happy? Do you look for things to make you happy? Or maybe you seek happiness to abate sadness.

When we rely on things to make us happy – people, places, events, material goods, food, alcohol, drugs – we associate happiness with feelings of elation, which are temporary.

To have true lasting happiness, we must find contentment. In the Sufi teachings, contentment is a high station. It is learning to be content with what life brings – the highs, the lows, the mundane, and everything in between. 

This is the topic of today's Meditation & Healing Circle.  Is there something in your life that you can re-interpret to release yourself from the roller coaster of discontent? Is there something you can simplify to find contentment and live a more harmonious life? 

Listen to this episode to release yourself from the roller coaster and discover the beauty in simplicity.
