Naikan / Gratitude Spread

Eowyn

Literally inspired by this article.

The concept is really simple: we usually forget the many acts of kindness we have received. So, the idea is to embrace gratitude, by meditating on three simple questions. One can just go and answer them, or use a little help, with a tarot deck. Why not I say. The whole idea is to enjoy one of those beautiful decks we have!

The Naikan - Gratitude Spread

1. What did I receive?
2. What did I give?
3. What trouble did I cause?

Make it on a daily reading, or address specific periods of your life.

Love this spread. And it is so important for all of us to focus on the blessings we receive, and to be grateful for them no matter how simple and small they may be. I am grateful for having you in this forum and for this simple but powerful spread. Have a great weekend! Blessings,

Great idea!
I am going to modify it to 1. What was my karma today?(center), 2. Who did I heal?
3.Who healed me? 4. What else did I receive? 5.What else did I give?
