Micro-practice:
Whenever you can during the day, practice the relaxation for just few minutes. It is very simple. The script is attached.
Dedicated practice:
We encourage you to start your day with a moment of Heartfulness meditation. A moment can be few minutes, but try to sit for 15 to 30 minutes. Ideally, try to do it every day.
Gently close your eyes and relax.
Turn your attention inwards and take a moment to observe yourself. Make a gentle suggestion that the source of light already present in your heart is illuminating it from within and drawing you in.
Do this in a gentle and natural way. There is no need to concentrate. If you find your awareness drifting to other thoughts, gently come back to the idea of the light in your heart.
Feel immersed in the light in your heart, and let yourself become absorbed.
Remaining still and quiet, rest there for as long as you want, until you feel ready to come out.
Journaling prompt:
You can set a timer for 3 to 7 minutes and just allow your pen to flow freely, letting your thoughts be captured by your journal. Just write the prompt below and allow yourself to be surprised, writing continuously without a filter. You will not be asked to share your journal with others. The only "rule": not to stop writing during the time of the exercise, even if you feel it strange at the beginning… our inner self has its wisdom of its own.
