Reflecting on Hope, a Guided Meditation | Hello humankindness

Today we will reflect on the experience of hope and the mechanics of building hope. We will be asking together: “What have I done in the past to experience the calm that has come from hope? Hope is essential nourishment for our spirts. With hope, we are able to endure in difficulty and flourish in ease. Hope is based in our ability to imagine a fulfilling future story about our life. We have hope in the present when we can define what that satisfying future might reasonably be. When pieces of our future story change or are lost, we can feel a loss of hope. We might grieve. Hope can be revived by reconstructing the foundation and the building blocks of a new future story. As we recall the cornerstones that anchor our future story, we reestablish our hope. As we place down new details of our future story, we strengthen our hope. Expanding hope often is accompanied by inner calm. So what are the cornerstones of your future story – of your hope? Is faith a cornerstone, or perhaps commitment to your work? Do family or loving friends ground your story? How central is your ability to create, or your capacity to be in nature? And what are some of the building blocks of your future story – of your hope? Do you imagine sharing gratitude, or daily prayer, or the renewal that comes from silence? Will you design time to learn, or retreat, or play? Do you vision strength in your body, or acceptance of your emotions? Building the story that shapes our hope is an ever unfolding process, so we can be patient. We can find our calm. Hellohumankindness.org | DignityHealth.org
