There is a section on my daily walk that I call my “Bowl of Abundance”. Before I get to this particular spot there is a beautiful path that is covered on both sides with tall trees that make for something of a dark tunnel. As I approach this spot, the light from this open space floods the tunnel and welcomes you to come in. When you walk into the space, you get the feeling that this marvelous place of green grass, specimen trees and endless blue sky was created just for you. In reality it was; this beautiful spot was transformed into a public park some years ago from a toxic Superfund site. It is the best part of my daily walk and sometimes after my five mile journey, I will take a few moments and take in the beauty of this place.

The principle of abundance that I am learning about is one of that I have gleaned out of Louis Hay’s “You Can Heal Your Life“. As I was coming out of my depression, this part of my daily walk became my own personal bowl of abundance. The sky is so open here that it feels like a gigantic bowl that has been turned upside down. I guess in that sense it is my dome of abundance. This place symbolizes my own reworking of my mind and my spirit to concentrate more on good things, to be grateful for what I have and to believe that I deserve a bountiful abundance of every good thing in the universe as we all do.

I am grateful for the healing power of good physical, mental and spiritual habits.
