Fuel for resilience

This simple practice converts draining emotions into fuel for resilience. The more you smile into discomfort—anger, impatience, worry—the more you reclaim your power.

Heal Pain and Discomfort with Loving Awareness

If illness or pain arises, befriend it. Smile at the affected area, listen to it, and engage in silent dialogue. Notice as tension melts, colors brighten, and blocked energy begins to flow freely again.

Make the Inner Smile a Daily Ritual

Practice upon waking to set a tone of calm and clarity for your day. This self-love radiates outward, enhancing relationships, focus, and productivity. Short on time? Even a minute of inner smiling can reset your state.

Ground Your Energy: Store Smiles in the Navel

To safely integrate this practice:

1. Collect energy in your navel center (about an inch inside your abdomen). This prevents energy overload in the head or heart.

2. Spiral the energy:

o Women: Circle counterclockwise 36 times, then reverse for 24.

o Men: Circle clockwise 36 times, then reverse for 24.
(Use your finger to guide the motion at first.)

3. Feel the energy stabilize—now anchored and ready to support you anytime.

You’ve just completed the Inner Smile. Carry this lightness forward.
