About this session
- Clarifies your vision
- Opens your imagination
- Lifts your mood
- Builds self-trust
Katia Kulyk guides you to sit tall, close your eyes and count down ten imagined steps into a private inner space. There you ask what freedom means, then picture life as though it is already yours: the place, the people, your perfect day from waking to bedtime, and a name for who you are.
It suits anyone feeling unsure about what they truly want, or wanting to reconnect with their dreams. Try it at the start of a day, or in the late afternoon when you want to pause, breathe and remember what you are moving toward.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
Why does the meditation start by asking 'what does it mean to be free?'
The question is asked several times, first as a gentle opening and later from deep inside. Katia asks it again with 'what needs to happen for me to feel free?', then invites you to pause and listen for the answer. Your own definition becomes the material for everything that follows.
What is the countdown of ten steps for?
You imagine walking down a staircase surrounded by darkness, feeling each step under your feet and breathing with the steps. Each one takes you deeper inside, to what Katia calls your personal space, where you are safe and can get answers to your questions. At step one you are fully connected to yourself.
What am I supposed to picture once I'm there?
You treat freedom as a fact and look around. Where are you, is it day or night, indoors or outdoors, who is with you? Then you follow a perfect day: how you wake up, what you do, what sports you play, how you spend vacations and how the day ends.
What if I don't get an answer when I ask myself a question?
Katia says this is fine. If you don't hear the answer consciously, the question has been planted like a seed in your subconscious, and the answer will come sooner or later. The practice is about asking and allowing, not forcing a result.
What does 'a juicy noun' mean near the end?
After asking 'who am I?', you give yourself a name or identifier that describes you as a totally free person. It's a single word or image, and it doesn't matter if you clearly hear it. You then notice what your body feels, such as being expanded, light or at ease.
How do I use the feeling of freedom after the session?
Katia describes the feeling as the beginning of your outer freedom. She invites you to indulge in it, nourish it and express it, and says the more you feel it, the more freedom shows up day after day. Returning to that lightness in your body is a simple way to carry it into your day.
