This is one exercise that is part of a group of workshop experiences created to guide participants to deepen theri authenticity. Reflect on 5 Ways to experience greater joy in life:
1. Understand Who you are
Meditate on questions like; 'Who am I?' & 'Why am I really here?'
2. Identify matters most to me at this stage of life?
Brainstorm, dream-vision, vision-board, use whatever means resonates...
3. Interact with those who live/ model or embody your ideal
Which books have you read? Which events have you attended? Where do models come from?
4. Explore obstacles to being yourself
This implies examining; fears, frustrations, disappointments, irritations which point to belief in the illusion of separation. Only then can one begin to allow self-love to take root.
5. Write out and create the ideal vision of being you in the present tense
Where are you? What are you doing? Who is with you? How do you feel?
