The Magic Wand Exercise
I find it valuable when I’m reminded about the magic wand exercise. So, here I am reminding you today.
If you could wave a magic wand today and change whatever you wanted for your life, what would that be? Keep yesterday’s post in mind with this question because this question is the precursor, the forerunner, to that.
When the wildness of the day happens it’s easy to get caught up in simply doing what we need to do just to get through it, however, we mustn’t forget to dream new dreams. For ourselves, for our Earth, for our world.
Starting with our own personal world is often a good place to start. And I’ll be honest, I’m mostly referring to pretty foundational things here - a sense of home, comfort, safety, security vs. acquiring expensive luxury items and experiences.
Once we have our personal foundations in place, it becomes easier for the magic in our wishes, our time, our attention, resources to then naturally flow into the next pool down the waterfall. Now, how can we better our community, our region, our country, our Earth?
I list Earth last simply because in the micro to macro picture it is easier to imagine, however, I would argue that the Earth might deserve being closer to the top of that list, or maybe it’s considered in each progression along the way, including the Earth as a part of our family, our community etc. To me, this feels very, very right. But I’m not here to force my opinions on anyone. Just to share them :)
Now, wave that magic wand. What are you wishing for? For yourself, for your family, your community, your Earth?
And now, you have the homework of reading the last post; of seeing if you can come up with the steps to take to move it forward <3
