Santosha
Santosha is a Sanskrit word often translated as contentment, satisfaction, or happiness. It is one of the niyamas, the observances or disciplines, in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, forming the second limb of Ashtanga yoga. In this yogic philosophy, santosha is cultivated by accepting whatever life brings, both good and bad, with equanimity. It is not about apathy or resignation, but rather a state of inner peace that arises from recognizing that all circumstances are opportunities for growth and learning.
Practicing santosha involves cultivating gratitude for what one has, rather than focusing on what is lacking.
