Wake up 10-15 minutes earlier than usual and dedicate this time purely to yourself by engaging in any type of practice like breathing exercises, sitting meditation, or Qigong, with a mindset of commitment, as this structural change initiates transformation.
Shift your awareness from external stimuli to what is happening inside your body, sensing your bones, muscles, tendons, and organs, and listening to internal signals, to become mindful of yourself and gain a complete picture of your existence.
Identify what you are attached to in your life, as attachments make you ‘heavy’ and prevent you from moving on, and strive to reduce these attachments to facilitate continuous progress and freedom.
Recognize and embed the natural pattern of constant change, ups and downs, having and losing, into your reality, and seek balance, harmony, and peace in a mind-related way rather than living in extremes.
Once you have made a decision and chosen a path, commit 100% of your energy and effort to it without dwelling on regret or suffering over unchosen alternatives, especially when you perceive no other choice.
Experience and enjoy things that bring you joy and happiness to the fullest, but simultaneously learn not to attach to them, understanding that they will eventually be gone and practicing non-attachment prevents suffering from loss.
