So, I decided to try and focus on this idea of a ‘light blue aura’ recently. Not really sure where I got the specific thought from, maybe just popped into my head, you know how it is. Seemed like a calm sort of thing to explore.
Getting Started
First thing I did was just find a time when things were quiet. Usually late evening works best for me, less noise from outside and the phone stops buzzing so much. Didn’t do anything fancy. Just sat down on my usual chair in the living room. Didn’t light candles or incense or anything, just wanted to keep it simple, see what happened.
I closed my eyes and tried to, well, imagine it. This light blue color. Not like a bright, electric blue, but softer. Like the sky on a really clear, pale morning. Tried to picture it sort of surrounding me, like a gentle haze or mist.
The Actual Trying Part
Okay, gotta be honest, the first few times were mostly just me thinking about my grocery list or that email I forgot to send. My brain just wouldn’t shut up. It’s hard to just be still and focus on one thing, especially something vague like a color feeling.
I kept bringing my attention back to that light blue idea. Didn’t force it, just gently nudged my thoughts back whenever they wandered off. Sometimes I’d try thinking about things that felt ‘light blue’ to me:
- Cool water
- A clear sky
- That feeling of calm after you solve a tricky problem
Tried to associate the color with a feeling of peace, maybe clarity. Sometimes I felt a bit of a cool sensation, other times nothing much at all. It wasn’t like some big magical event, more subtle.
What I Noticed
I did this for maybe 10-15 minutes each day, for about a week. What did I really get out of it? Well, no visible blue light started shining off me, obviously. That wasn’t really the point, I guess.
But I did notice I felt a bit calmer afterwards. Less frazzled, maybe? Taking that time to just sit and breathe and gently focus on something simple seemed to help dial down the mental noise a bit. Maybe the ‘light blue’ part was just a useful anchor for my attention, something neutral and pleasant to focus on.
So yeah, that was my little experiment with the ‘light blue aura’ idea. It wasn’t about achieving some superpower, more just about the practice itself. Taking a few minutes to intentionally calm down and focus. Might do it again sometime when things feel a bit too hectic. It was a pretty straightforward thing to try, really.
