"content" has been a goal of mine for a while. Had it. lost it, want it back
When I'm feeling content, I am able to live in the moment. Often, that also frees my mind to do self work more easily than during difficult times.
I don't think it has to be one or the other, I think content and self work can co-exist very beneficially.
I'm so glad you're feeling content. It's very peaceful!
