Prescription

On a small piece of paper, write a regret (past) on one half and a fear (future) on the other. Fold it, place it under an hourglass (or a timer app set for 5 minutes). Light a candle. As the sand runs, whisper 'I release what was and what may be.' When time ends, burn the paper safely in a bowl, letting the ash dissolve in a cup of water, then pour it down the drain.
