sometimes when I am really missing the beach - and I can’t make it to the lake because it’s 17 degrees outside - I put on my insight timer to beach sounds, get a lil high, put the fan on full blast and the heater on my toes and I imagine that I am on the beach while I meditate. In the summer, I go to the lake and sincerely pretend it’s Florida. And I gotta say - pretending works. Plus, when you do inside beach, you don’t have the fish smell or the seagulls so I mean - there are bright sides to everything.
\tEver since I did the episodes on the power of imagination I have been finding ways to lean into my best life EVEN if I have to imagine it. I set up my environment as effectively as possible and I imagine it as well as I can fulfilling my wildest fantasies in the most vivid way possible.
\tIt’s helping too - it made me realize I was under optimizing my home environment, which is making me appreciate what I already have available, a lot more.
