Prescription

Draw two circles on a piece of paper: one labeled 'Inner Conflict' and one 'Outer Challenge'. Light a red candle between them. For each circle, write one word representing a current struggle, then slowly burn the edges of the paper with the candle flame (safely over a bowl), visualizing the fire transforming conflict into ash. Bury the ashes in a potted plant to symbolize growth from resolution.
