On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about the power of enough - the radical, life-changing shift that happens when we stop chasing the elusive “more-more-more” and start recognizing and appreciating what we already have.
I share one of my favorite stories from Kurt Vonnegut about Joseph Heller, and how Heller’s one line, “I’ve got something he can never have… the knowledge that I’ve got enough,” has stayed with me for years!
We dive into a little wisdom from the Stoics, the yogic principle of Santosha (contentment), and discuss how our endless comparisons and cravings can leave us feeling spiritually and emotionally impoverished, even if we’ve got a bunch of buckaroonies $$$ in our bank account.
I also invite you to find your own “Goldilocks” level of enough-ess and to notice if a lack of gratitude might be keeping you unsatiated and unsatisfied.
I also share a simple 5-minute Gratitude Visualization practice to start shifting how you see yourself and your life. It’s amazing what a few “Thank you’s” can do!
If you’ve ever felt like who you are, what you have, or where you’re at is never quite enough…
This episode is an invitation to pause, to take some personal inventory, and to remember that you’re already way more “enough” than you’ve been led to believe. ❤️
