Others rang it gently and closed their eyes again. A few asked how to use it at home for their own short pauses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t just a gift. It was a <em>feeling<\/em> \u2014 of being seen, appreciated, and invited into a space of deeper self-connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That day reaffirmed my belief:<br><strong>Wellness isn\u2019t just in workshops.
