reading, and meditating.<\/p>\n<p>A good question to ask yourself is:\u00a0 What do I need in my life right now?<\/p>\n<p>Being alone, you can look inward and discover truths about yourself.\u00a0 When you unplug from everything, you may find a spiritual guide of some kind.<\/p>\n<p>Going within uninterrupted, you may find a path to pursue your own way.\u00a0 You may even light up your true self.<\/p>\n<p>After your one-day sabbatical, notice how much calmer you are and how clear your thinking is.<\/p>\n<p>Ask yourself this:\u00a0 How can I fit stillness into my daily life?<\/p>\n<p>Can you find a few minutes each day for silence to discover yourself?<\/p>\n<p>Or, you may think of your sabbatical as therapy and set aside an hour or two a week to discover your true self.\u00a0 Over time, these weekly sessions may reveal mysteries for you to experience.<\/p>\n<p>But, whether you choose a one-day event or weekly therapy sabbaticals, enlightenment is possible.\u00a0 These moments alone clear the path for a new you to emerge.<\/p>\n<p>(This may be a good time for a self-Reiki session, if you&#8217;ve been trained.\u00a0 Reiki sessions don&#8217;t all have to be an hour.\u00a0 Ten or fifteen minutes can be strong healing moments.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/reflexologyforthespirit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/treeswing-TG.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
