About this session
- Sparks creative clarity
- Builds lasting motivation
- Clarifies your purpose
- Energises your morning
You begin by softening with the words relax and calm on each out breath, then quietly put a few questions to yourself: why this matters, what beliefs and resources back it. You pick a symbol, hold it near your heart, and rise above a gold thread of time to visit yourself at one, five and ten years on. Led by The Monroe Institute.
This is a follow-on to the creative mindset exercise before it, so it suits people who already know the basics of settling inward. Use it early in the day, when you want a project, idea or direction to feel anchored and possible. It ends with a count that returns you alert and ready.

See all by Monroe InstituteQuestions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What are the opening questions for?
Before any imagery, you ask your deeper being what you want to create, what it looks, sounds and feels like, and why it matters to you. You then ask which new beliefs would help, and what already supports you, including material, personal and relationship resources. These answers give the later visualization something real to draw on.
How do I choose the symbol, and what if it makes no sense?
You're invited to think of an object, colour, shape, sound or bodily sensation, then wait and let something arrive. The guide says not to edit, and that it doesn't need to make sense conceptually. You simply resonate with it and bring it closer to your heart centre.
Why visit one, five and ten years ahead?
Each time you float above the golden line and look down at a different point, you see yourself creating what you are here to create. You also look back along the line and notice how you handled challenges, learned from synchronistic events, and stayed flexible and receptive. Repeating it at three distances makes the sense of progress more familiar.
What does it mean to look back from the future?
Rather than only imagining the goal, you notice how you got there: overcoming challenges and resistance, learning from experiences and staying open. It shifts attention from worrying about obstacles to trusting your ability to move through them.
How does this follow on from the creative mindset exercise?
The guide opens by saying it continues from the previous exercise, developing a creative mindset. It assumes you've already begun settling into that state, which is why it is labelled advanced and moves quickly into questions and imagery.
How does the session bring me back?
You're told you'll take every conscious and unconscious learning with you, then return along the golden line. A count from ten to one adds energy with breaths, a wriggle and a stretch, so you end awake, refreshed and ready for the day.
