1. Meditate
Meditation is the practice of quieting the noisy voice of the ego in order to tap into heightened states of calm, inspiration, and wisdom. And there’s no one right way to do it. Some people meditate by silencing their thoughts. Some people dance to loud music. Others are through guided visualization.

2. Roots to the present
The more rooted we are in the present moment, the more connected we are to our agency and potential. One of the best ways to tap into the here and now is to connect with your senses. This allows us to embrace the physical world that surrounds us and reminds us that we are part of a larger landscape. This can be achieved by observing the morning dew glistening on the branches of a tree, inhaling the aromatic vapor of your afternoon tea, or scratching your pet friend’s head. Try interspersing intentional sensory activities throughout your day to steady your busy mind. Even if you just take three deep breaths on the subway, your nervous system will thank you. As you slowly consume life, the magic around you intensifies. Give it a try.
3. Journaling
Journaling is essentially creating a dialogue between you and the diverse characters that live inside your mind. Think the wounded inner child, the hopeless romantic, the daring Creatrix, the ferocious fighter, or the stable, grounded adult.

Affirmations are powerful tools that rewire unhelpful thoughts and set you up for abundance. You can use them to reframe negative thoughts you want to change or to strengthen your hopes and beliefs.

An example of a thought you are trying to change is, “I don’t have enough creative talent to share my work with an audience.” If we rewrite this sentence as an affirmative, it becomes: “No matter what the end result, my creativity is an expression of the generative power of life. When I share it with others, I offer them a blessing.” Need more examples? In case, chani app — Every week we upload new written affirmations for healing and expansion.

This includes writing a letter to your future self, creating a mind map of your loftiest goals, and collaging the experiences, relationships, and changes you want to evoke in your life. Whatever you choose, be willing to regularly expand your thinking beyond basic expectations. And remember. This is not an exercise in fairy fantasy. This is a productive way to renew your thinking. At the end of the day, you need to be able to conceptualize something before you take any concrete steps to get it out there. So dream big and make your aspirations the center of your daily life. You can never have too many reminders of good things to come.
