Marloes, great! I might write an article about this soon, since it’s simple to do and gives surprising benefits. And it’s about the mind, where vision really happens. If you think about it, every moment IS new, if only because you yourself have never been exactly the same person you are right now. Keep up the good work, and the enthusiasm!

I just went to the supermarket and pretended it was the first time I was there. I felt like a tourist! “Oh, they have cheese over here …” Real fun! I’ll do this more often. It was relaxing for my eyes in a way, but I need more practice. Thanks for the exercise!

Marloes, yes! Simple awareness of this habit is a first step to changing it. Play a game of pretending you’re in a brand-new scene, looking around and taking it in. What is THAT? No expectations, no trying. Have fun with it!

Trying to see is a very strong habit. I find it very difficult to let it go. The idea that you don’t try to listen or taste either does help. Strange actually, that we don’t ‘try’ with all the other senses, but we do ‘try’ with vision.
Seeing/not seeing is a choice. I’ll keep that in mind!
Thank you!
