This prescription is not meant to diagnose you or cure your ailments. Yet it has improved the quality of life of many of our patients. It rests on a simple notion: pragmatic truth. Apply it seriously in your daily life for four months so that your brain has a chance to naturally reprogram its old patterns. If you notice something positive, adopt it as your truth. If not, you can dispose of it. The prescription is made of two complementary parts. Simple to describe but demanding to truly integrate. Be persistent, because it is through small, repeated exercises that real change takes root in our lives.
First part: Choose ten life principles you wish to embody. If you had to redefine yourself from scratch, what would that look like? You may draw inspiration from those already present on this site or create your own. You do not need to be all of this yet. These principles represent an ideal, a direction to follow. Choosing the first one already means you have begun to walk a path for which you are the lighthouse. Reread them often, and in your daily life, whenever a difficult situation arises, make the effort little by little to act in alignment with your principles. There are no good or bad principles, only the ones that serve you here and now. With time, you will discover for yourself which ones refine themselves and which ones change.
Second part: An introspective exercise. Science already describes a silent and empty space that occupies ninety nine percent of your body, much like the expanses that separate galaxies from one another. Spirituality speaks of a sacred or divine space. These are two sides of the same coin, two languages describing the same reality. By inhabiting this space, you can therefore be rational and deeply spiritual at the same time. The void is not material, so nothing leaves a trace there. Not family conflicts. Not transgenerational memories. Not dramas. Not culture. This void has no heritage. It has no opinion. It identifies with none of your reflexes. Above all, fear cannot settle there. As long as you inhabit it, observe whatever presents itself to you. A pressure behind the eyes. A burning in the throat. A weight in the chest. A twist in the belly. Colors. Textures. Shapes. Stories. Thoughts. Minute movements. Do not try to erase anything or understand anything. You are a witness, not a surgeon. Look at these manifestations as systems that are trying to do their work. They protect, warn, restrain, plead, caution. Ask them what they are trying to avoid. What they fear. What they have to tell. The answer sometimes comes not through words but through sensations that transform under your gaze. Your attention is enough. It is light, it is a solvent. When it becomes difficult for you, breathe fully. Inhale as if you were widening the walls of the void. Exhale as if you were opening its windows. The breath is not there to numb anything but to allow whatever movement arises to go all the way to its end. Once ventilated, the story regains its final form and dissolves into that void which knows how to contain it.
This prescription strengthens self confidence and self esteem. These are the two pillars needed for everything else to find its place. The image below accompanies this practice to help you visualize it more clearly. Print it, write your ten principles on it, then contemplate this porosity to the world that characterizes you. Some systems dissolve and leave, while other ideas enter and settle. Observe how your ten principles become your filters and how your inner void gradually emerges between the waves of the multiplicity that constitutes you.
