A8: When you tune into gratitude, you start seeing and feeling joy in small little bursts throughout your day - the sun peaking through the trees on your bus ride to work; a dog wagging it’s tail on its morning walk. Consumerism teaches us to chase things when joyful moments surround us. #spiritchat

A7: That’s an important reminder Kumud - thank you. To let others know when you are grateful for them. #spiritchat

A6: Gratitude doesn’t mean that you whitewash the uncomfortable feelings with platitudes. Life is messy with pain and joy. A gratitude practice helps us tune into the whispers of joy when suffering is yelling at us, trying to get our full attention. #spiritchat

A5: I think we need to practice gratitude. When things are going poorly, it’s easy to wallow in the stress of it all and miss the little glimmers of joy that visit us during the day. #spiritchat

A3: I think the practice of thinking of 3 things that you are grateful for at the end of your day, helps you reset your mind before falling asleep. Perhaps it is the practice, moreso than the content, that is important. #spiritchat

A2: It’s difficult to be grateful when your basic human needs are not being met. There is so much suffering in the world - much of it manmade. #spiritchat

A1: It’s a conscious act isn’t ? A daily practice to reflect on the moments of your day that you are grateful for - a sunny day, a hug from a friend. #spiritchat

I am seriously considering my social media choices. I’ve already bailed on two platforms. As an early adopter, I initially enjoyed exposure to info and people I could never meet in my day-to-day life. Although there is some of this still, it is often drowned out by hate. Goodbye hate. Hello Gander.

A9: Music brings us closer to the divine. You hear singer-songwriters talk about how the inspiration for some of their most popular songs comes to them like a gift. When we sing, play or listen to music, we are lifting the energetic cadence. #spiritchat

A8: I went to my first community sing-in called, All Together Now. The organizer teaches a bunch of strangers to sing a song during the 2 hours. This was the result. #spiritchat soundcloud.com/user-3692891...

From the September 29, 2025 session at The Coda!
All Together Now is a drop-in choir led by Director of The Choirs YYJ, Marc Jenkins. It is an all-ages, all-welcome monthly-ish event. With Brooke Gal

A7: As a Tenor in a choir, when you are learning your part, it sounds very discordant, but the moment when you put the 4 parts together and your voices blend in a human chord - is magical. Singing in community is energizing and uplifting. #spiritchat

A4: I learned how to play guitar in my teens and the music of Carole King, Jimmy Buffet, America, Bread, the Eagles - too many to list - was my backdrop. My part-time job earnings were spent on buying 45s, sheet music and going to concerts. #spiritchat

A3: I never turn my back on music. It is a constant in my life especially when walking. I also sing in a rock choir so need to practice every week to learn the harmonies. #spiritchat

Someone on the bus has Voltaren on and it is very calming. In addition to creating a cooling sensation on the skin, it is also soothing to the nervous system - a welcome addition in a chaotic world.
