Folding the Chatterbox
For this last day together, we offer a nostalgic and fun origami-inspired printable with mindfulness reminders written inside that you can carry with you or give to a friend.
Ideas of what you could write inside:
- What is my intention (vs. a goal)?
- Talk to a friend and listen to what they have to say.
- What does your body need? Do it.
- Listen to music.
- Do something nice for yourself.
- Slow down and pay attention in a gentle way.
- Express gratitude
- Take a mindful pause
How do you fold a chatterbox? It's simple! Learn here and download the template below to get started.
Reflections
Of the microdoses of mindfulness we have practiced, which one resonated with you most and why? Which one did you find the most challenging?
How can you hold space for mindfulness in your days going forward? What does that look like for you?
David recently said, “A part of our unfolding happens in these places where we’ve lived.” What places in your life hold deep meaning for you?
Reminder
“I realize the miracle of myself and simply return to my practice.”
Your inner and external psychedelic wellness journey has millions of small steps. But your mindfulness journey only has one step: the one you're taking now. Mindfulness is a gift to yourself for a well-built life. Mindfulness is a care package for your heart and soul.

From Letters of Note:
"Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soul grow."
by Kurt Vonnegut, Letter to Xavier High School
Before we close this week of practices together, why not write a letter to your future self about your intentions?
