Gather • Candle and matches • Mirror • Journal Begin • Place your mirror at the base of the candle. • Light your candle, saying these words: I live I am part of the mystery of life I breathe I connect with the wonder of creation Notice With your eyes open, allow your attention to wander to your hands, noticing their features, as if you have never seen your hands before. Close your eyes and move your hand to take your pulse at your wrist, noticing the steady beat of your heart. Feel your pulse at your throat or in your neck, tuning in to its rhythms. Take your time and consciously slow down your breath, quieting its rhythms to better hear your pulse.
