✒ Unexpected Meditations ✒

As you settle into your meditation practice, you find yourself transforming into a wild fox with a big heart. But despite your fluffy tail and cute nose, you can feel the weight of anxiety creeping up on you.

As you take a deep breath in, you feel the fear and worry swirling around in your fox brain. You try to let it go, but it's like trying to catch a squirrel - it just keeps darting away from you.

But then you remember something important - you're a fox! You're supposed to be crafty and quick-witted. So instead of chasing your anxiety, you decide to outsmart it.

You close your eyes and imagine your anxiety as a little mouse scurrying around. Normally, you would pounce on it and try to eat it, but that's not going to help you in this situation. So instead, you decide to have a little fun with it.

You imagine yourself sneaking up on the mouse and tickling it with your nose. The mouse squirms and giggles, and you can't help but laugh too. Soon, the anxiety that was once overwhelming you starts to fade away as you playfully interact with the little mouse.

As you continue to meditate, you realize that anxiety doesn't have to be your enemy. It's just a little mouse that's gotten loose in your mind. And just like with any mouse, you can catch it, play with it, and then let it go.

So you take a deep breath in, feeling your fox heart beating strong and steady. You open your eyes and look out at the world with a newfound sense of playfulness and curiosity. And even though anxiety may still be lurking around, you know that you have the power to outfox it.
