Following The Lights That Make You Shine

We guide a short meditation into Howard Thurman’s reminder to ask what makes you come alive and act on it. Through questions and a poem about quiet usefulness, we show how to find patterns that reliably light you up and turn them into simple, repeatable choices.

• soft breath and body scan to settle
