Helpful Stuff I Picked Up: Nalani Sharsch Hao

Mme. Nalani is one of my company's clients. We only had three but very great conversations after an attempt on selling her a product (she didn't buy it). She calls what I'm about to write here "magic".



A note she left.

  1. You'll just do nothing for 20 minutes. "You can drink tea," she said, but you have to do nothing for 20 minutes.
  2. You'll go to a place in your memory. (close your eyes if you have to.)
  3. Describe that place.
    1. Start with what you see.
    2. Then what you hear.
    3. Then what you touched.
    4. Then what you tasted.


She did this method to her poetry writing class. she added that her students are sometimes surprised themselves.

CONNECT:

I'm quite confident that you are smart enough to use this information to your advantage. For starters, I think that this will help you in writing a sort of set-up for yourself and your reader when you're doing the reflection. Also, this can be an indicator; if you can't recall your place, what happened? Where you so focused on something that you can't absorb the place?
