If you were to close your eyes and envision your happy place, what would it look like? Would it be an open space or some sort of structure? Are there other people or just yourself? Can you see the sky? The Sea? If you are inside a structure, is the room big and spacious or more cluttered with belongings and furniture? Or maybe it is not a room at all? Can you see yourself?
