I love anything that promises to reveal hidden beliefs, thoughts, and meanings - especially those trapped in my own mind! I've found a site called Inner World Media that has a fun feature called 'Word Magic.' This feature does double duty: it's a tool for inner spiritual work as well as a writing exercise. Or it's just something distracting to do at work while you're killing time until lunch.
Go to this website: Inner World Media and click on 'word magic' in the sidebar. Click on 'play' and as you watch the colored spheres swirl around, focus on a question you have - maybe about the direction of your life, a relationship, your writing, what you should focus on that day, and then click on the color you're most attracted to. A word will swim out of the blue to you and voila! There's your theme for a journal entry, a poem, a story, a collage, a photograph, take your pick. The odds of getting the same word several times are a million to one, so if it happens, pay attention!
