What Is the Best of Life? (And How You Can Experience It)

27 min • 6 mars 2025

Dear Feel Love Now Community,

In every moment, we have the opportunity to open our hearts and attune ourselves to the best of life. By simply turning within and saying, "I am willing to cooperate with the best of life," we awaken our awareness to the divine presence that is always here.

The best of life is not something to seek outside of ourselves—it is already present. It is the breath moving through us, the sunlight warming our skin, the love and kindness radiating from those around us. When we choose to notice and appreciate this sacred interconnectedness, life unfolds in ways beyond imagination.

Let this practice be your invitation to transformation. The more we tune into beauty, joy, and goodness, the more they expand within us.

Here’s one of our favorite quotes from the video:

“Anytime we would love to help ourselves feel or think or know or experience more of the best of life, turn within and open our heart and say, ‘I am willing to cooperate with the best of life.’

And then tune in to: What is the best of life in this moment?’ You’re activating all of your senses and your inner awareness and noticing the best of life in this moment is that divine life is here breathing me. The best of life in this moment is that this glorious sunshine is shining down and it’s pouring down upon me.

So, I’m able to open to this pure life energy. The best of life is that there’s so much light and love and kindness and joy in the hearts of everyone who is in this room and everyone who’s meditating online now and in the future. And then you start to notice you’re interconnected with this network of beauty, this network of goodness, this network of joy. And then what happens is you’re moving from moment to moment in that energy.

The more that you choose to notice and appreciate the best in life, the more the best of life continues to unfold through us. This allows us to self-transform. Each of us has an unlimited capacity to self-transform.”
