Look at the young plant growing from the center of the mandala.
Bring to mind something you want to begin.
Not the finished result.
Just the beginning.
Ask yourself:
“What wants to grow in my life now?”
Let one answer become clear.
Now feel your feet on the ground.
Think about what is already available to support this new beginning:
your knowledge, experience, abilities, relationships, time, curiosity, courage, or other resources.
Ask yourself:
“What do I already have?”
Take one slow breath and allow yourself to feel supported by what already exists.
Now ask:
“What does this seed need next?”
Not in six months.
Not the entire plan.
Just the next step.
Choose one small, concrete action.
Gently press your feet into the floor for several seconds.
Silently say:
“I begin with what I have.
I give the new a place to grow.”
