Hey there!
Before the day picks up speed,
Let's take a few minutes to ground ourselves so we can move into the day with steadiness,
Clarity and calm energy.
Find a comfy spot,
Whether you're seated or still cozy in bed.
Let your whole body soften and relax and melt into this moment.
Take a slow breath in and a gentle breath out.
Let your whole body settle into this moment.
As you breathe,
Bring awareness to the simple fact that you woke up today,
A brand new morning,
A fresh beginning,
A clean page you haven't written on yet.
Keeping steady with your breath,
Imagine drawing in the energy of a new day and let go of anything left over from yesterday,
The tension,
The stresses,
The worries that don't need to follow you into today.
Feel the rise and the fall of your chest and belly with each breath.
Let each wave be your anchor,
Steady,
Calm and reliable.
With each inhale,
Connect more fully into your body.
With each exhale,
Feel your weight grounding you to the earth beneath.
Take a moment to notice how your body feels this morning.
No judging,
You're just noticing,
Simply checking in.
Notice your hands and arms,
Toes and legs,
Torso and back,
Head and neck,
Shoulders and chest.
Notice where your thoughts are at.
Simply repeat to yourself,
I start this day with calm.
I move through the day with ease.
I start this day with calm.
I move through this day with ease.
Breathe these words in.
Let them settle into every bone in your body,
Every muscle,
Every organ,
Every cell.
I start this day with calm.
Move through this day with ease.
I start this day with calm.
I move through this day with ease.
Take another grounding cycle of breath in and out.
As you continue on with your morning,
Let this grounded feeling stay with you,
A quiet reminder that you can meet the day peacefully.
And until next time,
Take good care.
