Clearing Swirling Thoughts At The Mirror Lake

A busy overthinking mind is like the surface of water that has been disturbed by heavy winds. This deeply calming practice transports you to the shores of a pristine lake at the very break of dawn. You will visualize the water becoming so perfectly still that it reflects the sky like a mirror. By slowing your breath you will gently smooth out your own mental ripples and invite a profound sense of quiet clarity into your headspace.
