3-step Mini Ritual
Sit grounded for three breaths and name aloud who or what is chasing you.
Visualize one safe exit — open a mental door and step through it.
Place a hand on your root chakra (base of spine) and repeat a steady grounding breath three times.
Write one short boundary or small action that would slow the chase in waking life.
Affirmation
“I slow down, see clearly, and choose my path with courage.”
