Stage 7 of 16

Day Three

The noise fades

Silence & Space

Today's Intention

The voices of obligation are quieter now. In that silence, what else can you hear?

"Three days is often when the breakthrough begins. The mind, finding no emergencies to manage, starts to show you what it's been holding."

Gentle

Grounding, sensory prompts to ease into reflection

Do

Spend thirty minutes without speaking, without reading, without screens. Just being. What arose?

Set aside 30 minutes today

👁 Sense

Find the color turquoise somewhere—in water, sky, or object. What emotion does this specific color evoke in you?

👁 Sense

Listen to the coconut palms when the wind blows. That sound—like whispered secrets, like gentle applause. What message does it have for you today?

Close your eyes and just listen

Reflective

Emotional and relational explorations

📖 Story

What memory from your past surfaced unexpectedly today or yesterday? Why do you think it came?

🫀 Body

If your heart could speak in sentences instead of beats, what would it be saying right now?

💭 Reflect

Find a spot where you can see the reef break—where waves meet the coral edge. That line between lagoon and open ocean is both a boundary and a threshold. What boundaries in your life protect you? Which ones trap you?

Deep

Challenging questions for those ready to go further

🌑 Shadow

What part of yourself have you exiled? The one you left behind when you grew up, or got 'serious,' or got hurt?

Meaning

You are on a small island in a vast ocean. Thousands of meters of water beneath you. What does this reality teach you about the nature of safety?

💭 Reflect

At night, look up. The Maldives sits near the equator—you can see both northern and southern constellations. You're at a crossroads of the sky. What crossroads are you at in life?

Do this after dark, away from lights

Your Reflections

These prompts are for you alone. Write in a journal, speak them aloud, or simply let them move through you. There is no right way to reflect.
