There is no expectation that you immediately set aside everything you have just witnessed. Instead, simply notice where you are. Feel your feet resting on the floor.

Take a moment to settle into a position that feels comfortable and supportive. Whether you are seated or lying down, allow your body to rest exactly as it is. There is nowhere you need to go. Nothing you need to accomplish. Nothing you need to become. For these next few moments...

A soft breeze moves through the leaves. Birds sing quietly in the distance. Every flower here is different. Some are blooming brightly. Others are still small buds waiting for their own season. Yet none of them are rushed. Each grows according to its own timing. In the center of the garden sits a beautiful stone bench.
