When I came across this meditation... I smiled π
π« Imagination is not something I tend to struggle with... but the idea of creating space every day β or as often as I could at least β created a fuzzy, warm feeling inside me.
This is the day that the adventure started πΌ
At first, I noticed that the world I was creating was quite close to the one I currently live in. It made me smile again, and I wondered...
βIs it a constraint of my mind?
βOr a sign that all the intentional steps and changes I have made over the last years are now getting me closer to that world I dream of?
As I continued to listen to it, I noticed how broader my imagination got... my world evolved, and new elements started to create a new reality, one I hadn't thought about before.
I loved it and wondered again..
β‘ What could happen if we all created space in our daily lives for the unexpected to happen?
β‘ What could happen if we were to join all our visions together?
β‘ How quickly could change truly happen as a result?
Something sure is that my mind is bursting with visions of the future, and keeping a space in my heart for imagination and the unimaginable brings joy to me!
So much so, that we're finishing the French translation* π

Activate: Imagination
The Guided Meditation
Iβve shared a lot of imagination resources over the past month, but although the challenge is officially over, the invitation to imagine stands. I felt the need to share Sophieβs text because her experience listening to the podcast is exactly what I intended when I first recorded it!
If you havenβt already, find some time (or carve it out if need be) and follow the guided meditation. All you have to do is close your eyes and invite space in your heart for something bigger/more/else to unfold. Becauseβ¦ what if?
The world we create tomorrow relies on the realities we start building in our minds today, so donβt take this exercise too lightly.
Itβs time to dream big! πΏ
