I invite you to follow the example of the great teacher of soul, Socrates, and do something concrete to introduce soul into your life. Socrates writes about the Greek therapeia, which means either "care" or "service." He says that it's like the care you'd give a horse on a farm: you feed it, brush it down, exercise it, give it water, and clean its stall. That's the model for therapy of the soul. It's an everyday attention to specific needs, not a cure or repair after things have fallen apart. Its goal is not to make life problem-free, but to give ordinary life the depth and value that come with soulfulness.

The present moment of your life, when you really stop and notice it, is filled with constantly changing conditions. Yet, much of the anxiety in our lives comes from the fact that we cannot hold on to anyone or anything. How can we ever live happily knowing that nothing lasts? 

In the midst of constant change, perhaps what must stop is you? Is it possible that the only thing that could stop is you? Could it also be that, when you stop, you notice and appreciate the amazing array of interconnections continuously maintaining your life and linking you with so many others?
