Page 11: The Daily Practice - Choose Yourself!

Spiritual Body• What is time travelling?

• Obsessing on past regrets

• or about future anxieties

• These are memories and speculation. You CANNOT control these

• Do not time travel, live right now

Page 12: The Daily Practice - Choose Yourself!

Spiritual Body• Money Worries

• Relationship Fears

• Insecurities

• How will tomorrow be?

• Will I be judged because of yesterday?

• All of this doesn’t exist. It’s your mind pretending.

Spiritual Body• Most people think the word “Spiritual” means “God” or

“Religion”, that’s not true. It means to not time travel, to live in the present

• Pray - for a few seconds of the day just be thankful

• Meditate - try meditation for a few minutes everyday, it’s not that hard

• Being grateful - think of everyone in your life you are grateful for

• Forgiving - picture everyone who has done you wrong. Forgive them.

“Its hard to do all of this every day. Nobody is perfect. I don’t know if I’ll do all of these things

today. But I know when I do it, it works.”
