Savor: Card of the Week Message - Love Notes from The Divine Inspirational Card Deck
Savor
Welcome to your “Love Notes from The Divine” message for Sept. 20 - 26, 2020.
“Take some time to mindfully savor the goodness that you are experiencing. Paying attention produces joyful results.”
Ah, what a beautiful invitation for this week, to savor the goodness in our lives. If you like to journal, grab your journal and a favorite pen to write a list of all the good things that are going on right now in your world. If journaling is not your thing and you prefer to make a list on your computer, tablet, or phone, do that. If you want to mentally take note of the goodness surrounding you that’s fine too but writing it down or speaking it engrains the gratitude more fully in our lives.
This is the time to put complaints or excuses aside. We are being invited to see what is going right in our lives right now. This invitation can take 1 minute or all day, it’s up to you, dear heart.
What does savor mean?
In this context, we’ll define savor to mean to take pleasure from, to appreciate relish, or enjoy. Doesn’t that sound delicious?!
We know when we savor a dish of food that is particularly pleasing to us it affects us viscerally. It delights our sense of taste, sight, and smell. We may ooh and ahh about it, we may want to know how it’s prepared, where it came from, and how can we replicate the experience again in the future. An aroma may trigger a pleasurable experience from the past that we have savored.
Take a few moments to look around you or to think about the things that bring you a sense of loving gratitude or delight. It could be a person, place, or thing.
What is bringing you great pleasure or delight in your life right now? It could be something you see in the room with you, it could be a memory, a person, pet, food… Think of all the reasons this person, place or thing delights you.
Bask in this goodness. Delight in it. Revel in it. Savor it. The feeling of savoring improves our mood and releases the feel-good hormones dopamine and serotonin. Savoring things is a pleasurable act of self-care that you can embrace many times during your day.
Esther Hicks via Abraham talks about this concept and calls it a Rampage of Appreciation. You may want to find out more about it. It’s a practice I employ regularly.
Happy Savoring, dear heart.
Love,
Janette
