Santosa

Santosa
-Is one of the niyamas
-Modesty and the feeling of being content with what we have
-A feeling of well-being no matter what
-Acceptance of whatever happens (and learning from it)
-A feeling of happiness that we don't have to go outside ourselves to find
-Different from satisfaction - satisfaction is the result of having a desire fulfilled
-We don't need to do anything to reach santosa other than look within ourselves
-Encompasses our mental activities such as study, physical efforts, how we earn our living

Namaste,
Cat
