Day 3 Setting an intention of kindness This morning is a new beginning. Every day is shaped, Not only by what happens, But how you meet it. Once again, Sit comfortably, Either on a chair or on the floor. Hands resting in your lap, Breathing gently in through your nose, With your mouth closed. At the top of your breath, Pause, Then exhale through your nose, Then at the bottom of that breath, Pause again, Inhale again. Now bring one hand, Bring it up to rest at your heart. As you breathe, Notice a quiet, Spacious presence that is here and ask yourself, What simple quality will I be today? How can I manifest this quality in my day? Perhaps compassion, Perhaps patience, Perhaps kindness, Perhaps clarity, Or calmness, Or understanding? Don't force the answer, Let it arise naturally. Whatever comes, Breathe it gently into your heart. Receive it, Be grateful for it, And as you exhale, Let that quality expand and radiate. For a few breaths, Rest in this chosen quality, Feeling it alive in you, Let it become you. This is your guiding intention, The conscious tone of your day. As you rise into the morning, Carry it with you in your heart, Into your words, Your connections. This day will be shaped by this kindness of your conscious presence.
