Ritual Practice

Take a small box (like a shoebox). On separate slips of paper, write things you 'carry'—responsibilities, resources, burdens. Place them in the box. Seal it with tape. Place it on a shelf. For one week, each morning, touch the box and say, 'I carry what is needed. I release what is not.' After a week, recycle the papers.
