imagination

A few months ago I started visualizing my life as I would like to see it: me fully functioning physically. I made a list of the activities that I wish I could do. I broke the list into 4 parts and taped them around the apartment. The idea being that throughout the day I would stop, choose an activity from one list and spend 10 to 15 min. seeing and feeling myself do that activity.

I usually visualize exercising (in various ways) in the morning and dancing before I go to sleep at night. It's great to feel myself lifting weights, jumping rope, dancing around the bedroom, etc. I have been doing this with the hopes of creating a new reality for myself.

While it’s not reality, seeing and feeling myself do things I enjoy gives me a little bit of the miracle I'm contemplating during those 10 to 15 min. After encouragement from a friend last week, I began adding extra times to my day when I feel the way I wish I could. Imagination is a wonderful, powerful thing. How will you use yours?
