Free 15-Day Better Today Practice

Your mirror is only the beginning

BETTER TODAY

15-Day Mirror Practice

REFLECT  •  RENEW  •  RELAX

Discover more of the you that already exists inside.
A few intentional minutes. One reminder at a time.

Begin here · How to use your mirror practice

Look at yourself for a moment. Begin with: The power is within. Bring one real situation, question, or appreciation into the practice. Carry that same focus through all three steps.

Reflect • What is? Notice what happened, what you feel, and what you believe. Distinguish what you know from what you assume and what remains unknown.

Renew • What could be? Explore possibilities for that same focus. Give yourself room to think beyond your first answer before choosing what to pursue.

Relax • What can I do today? Choose a useful step within your influence. Participate, observe, and learn. You do not have to solve everything today.

Speak the daily declaration, then close with I Am Feeling Better Today. In the evening, note what you learned. You may repeat a reminder or return after a break.

Use language that fits your understanding. The power within may connect with your faith in God or with your capacity for awareness, learning, choice, and care. No particular belief is required.
