If living through quarantine and my father’s COVID19 near-death experience has taught me anything, it’s to take advantage of things when you have them. It’s only when you can no longer go to a café with friends that you realize the beauty of those moments. So, with the long summer days and warmer weather, I decided to kick my jogging into high gear.
However, some are lucky enough to find that perfect flow of energy. That flow of energy leading to the place of goodness and light. Following that flow leads them to success (not monetary, necessarily, but happiness and contentment and joy in life). What if prayer is simply a form of tuning into this energy? Maybe meditation, yoga, running, hiking, reading a good book, coding a new experience, sleeping, or even dancing are all prayer. Maybe when we find that “flow” state that so many self-help gurus talk about, we’re actually in a state of prayer.
