Week 6 : Find Your Center

“Meaning is the language of the soul.”

Reading: Finish Section III. Again, note any chapter, section or passage that causes your mind to drift away from your reading. Allow this drifting to become an exercise in mindfulness. Where are you being directed? Take control of it and see what you can learn from it.

Kind Action: This week’s action is adapted from the chapter “Finding the Center.” Choose a small object in your life that represents an important part of you. Set this object in a new place this week, a prominent spot that causes you to see it each morning. Consider its importance to you. Through this consideration, allow an idea for a kind action to blossom, be it one for you or someone else. Complete the act in the way it is meant to be done.

Blessings Journal: Reflect in your journal each day about your chosen object. Consider telling the story of how the object came into your life. Or write about your experience each day considering your object. The purpose here is for the object to be at the center of you considering your blessings this week.
