Generosity is another quality which, like patience, letting
go, nonjudging, and trust, provides a solid foundation for mindfulness
practice. You might experiment with using the cultivation of generosity as a
vehicle for deep self-observation and inquiry as well as an exercise in giving.
A good place to start is with yourself. See if you can give yourself gifts that
may be true blessings, such as self-acceptance, or some time each day with no
purpose. Practice feeling deserving enough to accept these gifts without
obligation to simply receive from your-self, and from the universe.
