Do you think your nest, your environment is luxurious? Why not? I think for many of us we associate luxury with expensive and external -- a high monetary value, a material thing. It’s no surprise really since as a society we have come to measure value and luxury in a terrifically skewed way.
In truth, the value of a thing lies in its transference, in making us feel good, loved or cared for. A material thing will never make you feel that, not at your core and not for the long term.
True luxury comes from something bigger than us. From our spirit that gives and receives selflessly a smile, a kindness, a loving gesture. From the universe we receive luxurious gifts through nature, animals, the stars.
It’s easy to fill our nests, our environment with luxurious things -- flowers, our pets, creating a loving and nurturing atmosphere. This is meaningful luxury we can all afford. Luxury that fosters wellbeing, safety and nurture, luxury that is truly PRICELESS.
Heading into the holiday season this is really important to remember.
