I bet you're going to say you don't do this. Asteya, our 3rd Yama is non-stealing.  And yes, I appreciate that you don't shoplift, but its about more than that. 

At the root of stealing is our dissatisfaction with our own belongings or circumstances.   This can manifest in comparing ourselves to others and indulging in the need for more and more and more.....

Whats the cure? Gratitude. 

Practicing Asteya guides us to see what we DO have. we practice Self-acceptance and compassion to ourselves, and to others.
