Reflect and make notes around
your hot air balloon
1) What are the qualities of the activities you
personally experience as nourishing? Could you
integrate more of these into your day? What
‘washing dishes’ moments could you have? How
could practising gratitude support your hot air
balloon’s balance?
2) Are your depleting activities/attitudes sandbags or
the basket? If they are an inevitable part of life
(basket), could you approach them differently, such
as letting go of resenting a chore or task?
Practising at Home
