This exercise you are about to start revolves around healing, in a sense of reconnecting to what is essential and authentic about yourself. As we understand the true nature of our suffering, we can evoke compassion for ourselves as we move through our uncomfortable feelings on the path to healing and peace.
I will be guiding you through a series of carefully collected questions written by different authors, some well-known and others unknown. You begin the exercise by spinning the Wheel of Fortune. After a few seconds, a question appears on the screen. Then, you take a photo slide from the deck and try to think of an answer to that question by looking at it and the tiny film simultaneously.
1. Have a strong sense of intention to commit to this exercise for some time.
2. Find a quiet room, free of distraction.
3. Get a notebook and a pen. Handwriting will engage your mind more actively and profoundly, help you connect with yourself, and enable the tracing of your progress over time.
