The Compass Within: Wise Mind 2.0

Wise Mind is the inner place where emotion and reason sit down together. It is not cold logic or raw feeling, but the deeper knowing underneath both. Think of it as a compass in the center of your chest, always there, even when the storm is loud.

Emotion Mind reacts from waves of feeling: urgency, fear, anger, longing. Reasonable Mind works from data and logic: lists, pros and cons, plans. Wise Mind listens to both and asks: What is true, and what matters most, right now?

Mini-practice: Place a hand on your belly and one on your heart. Breathe in slowly through the nose for four… and out gently for six. As you breathe, imagine the compass brightening at your center.
