Here’s a Sample of the “Growing Happiness in the Mind” Guided Meditation Script:

The Attitude of Gratitude

This exercise comes from the Buddhist practice of mudita, which means “appreciative joy.”

It can be understood as simply “showing up” for happiness with a caring presence.

As you train the mind to rejoice in happiness, you gain many benefits.

You feel more fulfilled by joy, recognize happiness more easily in your life, and train the mind to treat happiness as an important experience.

Find a comfortable posture and invite in relaxation from the beginning of your practice.

As you breathe, appreciate the life offered from each inhalation.

With the exhalation, let go of any tension in the mind or body.

Bring to mind a time in which you recently experienced happiness.

It may be something small, like seeing a friend, watching the sunset, or the simple joy of lying down at night.

When you have something, allow yourself to feel the experience of contentment.

With the intention of cultivating gratitude, offer yourself a few phrases of appreciative joy.

Keep the memory in your mind, and offer these phrases:

May my happiness continue.

May my happiness grow

May I be present for the joy.

May I appreciate the joy in my life.

If your experience feels more like contentment or ease, you can substitute the words that resonate with you.
