By changing how you approach life, you influence how life approaches you. Let this post inspire you to step away from your busy life and see life differently, with attention and appreciation.

Read this short spring poem to celebrate your connection to every season (especially the one you're in right now). It might just wake you up to the flowers that haven't even bloomed yet, and the ones that haven't bloomed in centuries. When you're here, now, you're part of everything that has ever been or will be.

Sometimes, I feel like walking barefoot on the earth and lying on the grass with my face to the sun is the most spiritual thing I could do. Because you're part of this world, this experience, read these Mother Nature quotes. They'll give life to your wild heart.

Don't feel like writing down 3-5 things you’re grateful for, even though you know it’s good for you? Good news: there are options! Here are a few ways to make the gratitude list a little more enticing, and maybe part of your everyday life.

Trying to be as open to the questions as you are to the answers? That's about the most spiritual thing I can think of. If you're in the mood, here are some “spiritual thoughts” to feed your curiosity and awe for the great gift this whole thing called LIFE is.

You can practice gratitude when you're stirring a pot of soup or looking into someone’s eyes, brushing your teeth or looking up at the sky. Documenting what you’re thankful for is great for happiness, but you don't necessarily have to write it down. Here are a few more ideas to get the joy flowing.

If winter isn't your favorite season, read these poems and quotes about winter. They might just change your mind about this season of renewal, this place for more space. And a change of heart like that... is a miracle. Don’t you think that a land covered in snow is a miracle, too?

If you want inspiration... every single day, make a happiness jar! Fill it with quotes, poetry, affirmations, journal prompts, song lyrics, anything else that makes you feel good. All you need is a jar of your own choosing, scraps of paper and a pen. Here's how I use mine, to inspire your own.

If you're dying for new energy, read this open letter to the universe. It'll inspire you to live the way YOU want to live, no matter what other people are doing, no matter what happened yesterday. Don't take this chance to be here, alive, for granted. Make it something that feels like magic, even when it feels like a mess.

Think of these gratitude journal prompts like a treasure hunt. You're finding things other people miss. Use them to see what’s already working in your life so you can make more of *that* your reality. Be the one who notices the beauty, and then points it out to others. We need more of that.
