Practical Tips

For one hour, try to experience something familiar (a walk, a meal) as if you are seeing it for the first time, full of curiosity.

1 Start a 'wonder journal' instead of a 'problem journal'
2 Ask 'what if this is a gift?' instead of 'why is this happening?'
3 Reduce 'should' language from your self-talk
4 Spend time in nature without a goal or agenda
5 Read poetry that embraces uncertainty (e.g., Rumi, Mary Oliver)
