And tap into this like soul calling of information of peace and tranquility and like all the things that you want to think about from this side.

That's where the meditation is actually like the sweet spot.

And people think that like, like, um, visualizations, like I thought I was, I couldn't visualize anything when I first got started. I was like, it's impossible for me to visualize anything.
