1

Hold a comb in both hands and breathe three slow counts to center.

2

Run fingers through a lock of hair and name one thing you intend to smooth or release.

3

Comb slowly while imagining drawing clarity down from the crown to your throat.

4

Close by thanking yourself for the small work and placing the comb somewhere visible.

Affirmation

“I tend my edges with kindness; small care reflects my true shape.”

Next 24 hours

Mindfully comb your hair once, aloud name one small thing you will tidy in your life, and jot it in a notebook.

Dreamwork Tools

Advanced techniques for deeper dream exploration – from symbol combinations to lucid dreaming cues. Track patterns and discover how this dream theme may evolve over time.

Symbol Combos

  • mirror: how you see yourself is being examined; image vs truth.
  • scissors: cutting away habit or relationship that no longer serves grooming of the soul.
  • water: emotional flow loosens knots — allow feelings to move through you.

Opposite / Antidote Symbols

water (flow) scissors (intentional cut) sunlight (gentle revelation)

Lucid Hook

Place a comb by your bed and tell yourself before sleep: 'If I touch a comb in the dream, I will know I'm dreaming.'

2–3 times

Note context and emotions each night; try the mini-ritual in waking life and see what shifts.

4+ times

Create a short nightly practice: journal, anoint the comb (oil), and ask the comb a question before sleep; consider deeper journaling or a guided session.
