BRAIN SCREEN
Set aside a specific time for meditation. Sit comfortably and breathe in and out deeply 3 times. IP Lift your hands to chest level and begin Feeling Energy exercise (page 68). Once you feel the surrounding energy field and quiet your thoughts and emotions, lower your hands to your knees.
Imagine that a stream of energy is entering the top of your head and shooting out from between your eyebrows. Imagine that it is projecting out like a film on a screen in front of you. Visualize yourself being healthy, happy, and peaceful. Genuinely feel these qualities with your entire being. Breathe in and out 3 times and then open your eyes.
Developing Your True Identity
The following exercises will help you examine your current identity, as wrell as get a better idea of who you would really like to be.
FROM ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE
It can be hard to stand back and really see ourselves as we are. We tend to filter our conception of self through many layers of judgment and wishful thinking. Use this exercise to see yourself from an objective point of view. Describe yourself from the perspective of some non-human thing, such as your couch or your dog. How do you appear from this perspective? Be as honest and complete as possible, referencing your character, appearance, and behavior. Try this from several different perspectives.
