RE-POSTED 7/22/25 with working audio link
Sunflowers are so amazing I just let them work their magic.
Imagining a field full of sunflowers in this 3-minute experience can help you connect with the qualities of a sunflower.
TRY THIS…
If you have time, let me guide you so you can focus on your experience.
HERE IS THE PRACTICE
Sit comfortably and close your eyes.
Notice your hands where they are resting.
Notice where the air is touching your skin.
Keeping your eyes closed, notice the light in the room around you.
Imagine a field of full of sunflowers.
Have a sense of a field full of sunflowers.
It’s the perfect temperature.
Bring your attention to the qualities of a sunflower.
Notice the colors.
Notice the height.
Notice the vibrancy.
Now imagine yourself as a sunflower in full bloom.
Imagine yourself as a sunflower.
Bring yourself there.
Keeping your eyes closed, notice the light in the room around you.
Notice where the air is touching your skin.
WHY DO THIS?
How do you feel after doing this practice? How does your body feel? How do you feel emotionally?

Connecting with sunflowers helps bring the qualities of sunflowers into your life and into yourself.
