Thriving is a state of being where we are&nbsp;in a receptive, connected&nbsp;relationship&nbsp;to both our inner world and external world. Thriving is not dependent on the form that the external world takes, but rather on our relationship to it.&nbsp; When we are in the state of thriving, we have access to what we need to move forward.</p>
<p>What is the relationship you have to the world around you right now?</p>
<p>What are you thinking and feeling?</p>
<p>When you recall a time that you experienced thriving, what were you thinking and feeling?</p>
<p>What causes you to thrive?</p>
<p>How can you create the conditions that create thriving right now?</p>
