👁 Sense
Find something alive—a fish, a crab, a bird, a plant. Watch it for five full minutes without looking away. What does it know that you've forgotten?
Set a timer for 5 minutes

Stage 6 of 16
Day Two
Rhythm without agenda
Slowness & Curiosity
Today's Intention
Move at the speed of wonder. There is nowhere you need to be that is better than here.
"By the second day, you may notice something strange: time has changed texture. An hour feels longer. A moment can contain everything."
Gentle
Grounding, sensory prompts to ease into reflection
🤝 Connect
Have a brief conversation with a stranger—staff, another guest, anyone. What did you notice about them that they might not know about themselves?
Do this today
🫀 Body
Lie on your back in shallow water and look up at the sky. Let the sea hold you. The salt makes you buoyant—you don't have to try to float. Where else in life could you stop trying so hard?
Float for as long as feels comfortable
Reflective
Emotional and relational explorations
🫀 Body
What is your body hungry for that isn't food?
💭 Reflect
Notice when boredom arises. Don't fill it. What lives beneath the boredom when you let it breathe?
📖 Story
Watch a dhoni boat pass by—the traditional wooden vessel that has carried Maldivians across these waters for centuries. What traditions from your own life still carry you?
💭 Reflect
Walk the beach at low tide. Notice what the sea has left behind—shells, coral fragments, seaweed. What has the ocean of your life deposited that you haven't examined?
Walk slowly, picking things up
Deep
Challenging questions for those ready to go further
🌑 Shadow
What are you avoiding, even here? What does that avoidance protect?
∞ Meaning
If you died here—peacefully, surrounded by beauty—would you feel your life had been enough?
Your Reflections
These prompts are for you alone. Write in a journal, speak them aloud, or simply let them move through you. There is no right way to reflect.
