I summarise important points from psychological research and highlight a contemplative story about the journey of a boy with his ox. I also offer an image of autumn that speaks of renewal and positive change.

Gratitude In All Things 
Hi Gavin I am interested in spirituality,I have been practicing Zen Buddhism zazen for 12 years . Raised Catholic I feel the need to return to my roots. The Jesuits I find very interesting can you recommend some reading.i would appreciate any recommendations
Regards Mick
Hi Mick, thanks for getting in touch. Great to hear you’ve been practising zazen for many years. Fair play to your wish to return to your roots! I’d recommend Jesuit Brian Grogan’s book ‘Finding God In All Things’ as a good intro. Here’s the book on the publisher’s website: https://www.messenger.ie/product/finding-god-in-all-things/ Best of luck! Gavin
