This is our final week of this 21 Day Meditation Experience and we are going to be tying it all together. Today we focus on how giving gives us more back.
Day 15 – How Can I Serve?
“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” ― Anne Frank

Message of the Day
Today we delve more deeply into what it means to be of service. When we serve others from a place of love, we are also serving ourselves.
For many of us, when we think of service, we envision great feats, sacrifices, large philanthropic donations, and other grand gestures. While service can be all those things, it can also be much more accessible in our daily lives. Giving to others through service is simply recognizing what you do best in any given moment and offering that as a gift to someone else. For instance, today you may notice someone who looks like they could really use a warm smile and, in that moment, you offer a smile in service to brighten their day. Giving can be that simple.
Reflect in Journal Questions:
- What is your answer to today’s soul question, “How can I serve?” Take time to really explore answers that come through your writing – just write freely.
- What are three specific actions you can take to illuminate the world around you through sharing your unique gifts and talents in service to others?
- What are you grateful for today?
- Reflect further on your experience today.
