Between the Frames

Imagine a place you love and allow it to become vivid in your mind. Then imagine that everything stops except you. A bird hangs motionless in the air, a wave pauses mid-crest, a person freezes halfway through a step. Now allow reality to begin moving again, but only one tiny movement at a time, as though you are watching a film frame by frame.

Once you can feel reality this way, begin changing things between the frames. Change the weather, the people, yourself, the possibilities, or the direction events are taking. The practice is not about forcing a particular outcome, but about loosening the sense that reality is fixed. Hold firmly to the feeling of what you prefer and lightly to the details, allowing life to organise itself in ways you may not yet have imagined.

Never a Lack

People often say they have a problem with lack — lack of money, time, love, opportunity, or freedom. But we are never without creative energy. We are creating all the time. The difficulty is that our conscious desires may be working against deeper beliefs about worthiness, struggle, success, money, love, or what we think we are allowed to have.

When life repeatedly produces something different from what we say we want, it can be useful to look beneath the surface. What beliefs are actually directing the experience? There is never a lack of life force or creative capacity. Don’t turn an abundance of creative energy into an experience of lack. That is like trying to breathe through a straw while standing in the vastness of open air.
