Cultivating Contentment

In Five-Element theory, contentment is the primary positive emotion associated with the lung system and the season of autumn. I just added a new meditation video on YouTube for cultivating contentment. Here’s the video description:

In a world that moves fast and demands more, contentment can feel rare.

But true peace isn’t found in more — it’s found in the breath between.

In this guided meditation, Ralph from Peace on Earth Meditation explores the *Metal Element in Qigong* — the home of Lung energy, the season of Autumn, and the emotional wisdom of letting go. 🌬️

Practice includes:

• Gentle breathing to calm the nervous system (4–6 rhythm)

• Awareness of the Lungs and the energy of contentment

• A slow Qigong flow: Breathing of the Universe

• Mindful reflection on gratitude and release

✨ Benefits:

  • Supports lung and respiratory energy
  • Releases grief and mental tension
  • Encourages gratitude, clarity, and inner stillness
