Reflection
To take something, to hold a moment, a person, or an idea up to the light, and turn it gently in your mind. The art of seeing beyond the surface, tracing the quiet sound of meaning. Reflection bends time, allowing the past to whisper into the present, offering clarity, reverence, and sometimes, the courage to change.
Give Thanks: At the start or end of your day, take a moment to acknowledge the gift of reflection. Ask yourself, what insight or clarity did reflection bring me today? How has the ability to pause and see beyond the surface enriched my life?
Quiet Ways: In the middle of your busy day, set aside 5–10 minutes to create a pocket of stillness. This could be: A short walk without distractions, Sitting with a cup of tea or coffee, simply observing the world around you. Hold a thought, a moment, or an idea up to the light and turn it gently in your mind. Ask yourself: What is the deeper meaning beneath this moment? Let the answers come naturally, without force.
Be Simple: After a moment of reflection, simplify. Choose one small action that aligns with the clarity you've gained. This could mean: releasing a thought that no longer serves you, responding with patience instead of urgency, decluttering a space as a symbol of internal clarity.
