Turning Toward the Light

5 · 10 min4 steps

Before you begin

Sit upright but unforced, hands open on your lap. Let the spine be tall without stiffness.

The practice, step by step — read it all first if you like

  1. Open

    Imagine a warm, steady light above and behind you — not glaring, just present.

    about 90 seconds

  2. Turn

    Like a plant toward the sun, let your attention lean toward that light. No effort, just direction.

    about 120 seconds

  3. Receive

    Let the light rest on you without needing to describe it. If words come, let them be simple: here, held, known.

    about 120 seconds

  4. Carry

    Picture the light going with you into the next hour of ordinary life.

    about 60 seconds

Accessibility

If visualisation is difficult, substitute a felt sense of warmth or the words alone.
