**Step‑by‑Step Guidance for Healing Practice**
1. Identify a personal memory that evokes pure wonder (e.g., a sunrise on a mountaintop).
2. Capture the image in one sentence and keep it written on a pocket card.
3. At any pause during the day (e.g., waiting in line), unfold the card.
4. Close your eyes, inhale slowly, and let the memory replay for 10 seconds.
5. Notice any subtle change in heart rate or mental clarity.
6. Return to the activity with the refreshed sense of connection.
7. Set a reminder to practice this three times daily for the first week.
8. After a week, expand the list of sparks to include small joys (a warm cup of tea).
9. Rotate the cards weekly to keep the stimuli fresh.
10. Record brief reflections on mood shifts in a journal to track cumulative effects.
