Set aside five minutes before the session. Sit comfortably and take three deep breaths to center yourself. Bring your thoughts to some of the major, positive changes that have transformed the world in which we live. The end of apartheid in South Africa. Civil rights movements in the U.S. and other nations. Think of miraculous social transformation.

Let your mind fill with images and memories of people who helped bring these changes into being. Breathe in deeply, and ask yourself, “What changes do I want to see in this world? What miracle is now being born? How can I help?”
