Hello and good morning.

Take a slow,

Full breath in and let it out softly.

Allow your shoulders to relax,

Your jaw to loosen and your hands to rest comfortably in your lap or by your side.

There's nowhere else that you need to be right now.

Nothing else that you need to figure out.

You're here,

Breathing.

You're just arriving gently into this new day.

Sometimes life can feel uncertain,

Like you're standing at the edge of something without being able to see what's ahead.

And that's okay.

This moment is about allowing what is rather than trying to make it different.

Begin to notice your body waking up.

Feel your feet or legs connected with the surface beneath you,

The steadiness of the ground that holds you.

Let that connection remind you,

You are supported.

You are not floating through uncertainty alone.

You are held by the earth,

By gravity,

By something steady beneath the surface of your worries.

Take another deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth,

Letting tightness drift away.

As you breathe,

Gently bring to mind something in your life right now that feels uncertain or heavy.

Don't analyze it or try to fix it.

Just acknowledge it with kindness.

Let it exist here beside your breath,

Beside you.

Now,

Whisper softly to yourself,

I can't control everything.

I can't choose how I meet this moment.

Feel those words settle into your body.

Acceptance isn't about giving up.

It's about opening up to what is so that you can move through it with more peace and less resistance.

Let your breath be a guide back to what is within your control.

The rhythm of your inhale and exhale,

The kindness in your words,

The gentleness of your own touch,

And the choices that you make one at a time.

Silently say to yourself,

Today I choose to meet what comes with calm,

With care,

And with love.

Today,

I choose to meet what comes with presence.

Take a final deep breath in,

Imagining light filling your chest.

Soft,

Warm,

Steady.

As you exhale,

Imagine the light spreading outward,

Touching the parts of your life that feel uncertain,

Offering them your quiet trust.

When you're ready,

Take a deep breath in,

A smile that says,

I don't have all the answers,

But I am here,

And that is enough.

Carry that feeling with you as you step into your day.

Anchored,

Gentle,

And ready to meet life one breath at a time.
