3-step Mini Ritual
Find a quiet five minutes and hold a small aperture (fingers, a ring, a keyhole) at eye level.
Breathe slowly three times while imagining light passing only through what you choose.
Ask: what needs focus? what needs closing? Listen for the first clear impression and jot it down.
Affirmation
“I open to clear light and close what drains my attention.”
