Stop, Start & Continue

Life can move quickly, and sometimes we need to pause long enough to ask ourselves what is really working for us.
Rather than trying to change everything at once, choose one thing for each area of your life to release or no longer require. It could be something small, or something you've been thinking about for a while.
You don't need to have all the answers. Simply choose one thing to focus on and allow yourself to listen.
Return to this practice whenever you need a thoughtful check-in with yourself, whether that's today, this week, this month, or even this year.
Listen to this gentle practice and take a few quiet moments to reconnect with where you are and where you want to go.

Welcome to We're going to take a moment to review your life. Let's start the meditation by breathing deeply. Inhale through the nose, Allowing the breath to fill your lungs, Your chest, Your heart, Your belly. And then exhale deeply through the nose or the mouth, Fully letting go of all of the oxygen held in your lungs. Take a pause and then have that nice big inhalation on the next breath. Filling your lungs fully and completely with fresh oxygen. And with each exhalation, Allowing your body to settle and rest a little more. Allow your thoughts to slow down. Allow your mind to become a little clearer. A little calmer. And a little more spacious. Continue to breathe deeply, Exaggerating your breath. And then let it settle into a natural rhythm. I'd like to invite you to take a moment to Think about what you need to stop doing in life. What is no longer serving you? Or working for you. What bad habit or unhealthy habit Do you really need to stop? And let go. Can be little or big. Just choose one thing for the day. Maybe this impacts you negatively, Or it makes you feel disorganized, Stressed, Or hurt. Maybe you just want to do better. What one thing do you need to stop doing? Take another deep breath here and move on to start to consider what do I need to continue doing? This is an opportunity to reflect and give yourself credit for all that you do that works for you. Maybe you've been sleeping well, Eating well. It can be little or big. Just take a moment to give yourself credit and think about what's really working for me. What am I doing well? What is it that I need to continue doing? Take another deep breath here. Moving on now I'm going to invite you to ask, What do I need to start doing? What do I need to start doing in my life? Maybe it's something you've been thinking about for a while. Maybe it will just come to you today in this meditation. What do I need to start doing? In my life. In my personal life. My work. My relationships. My health. My well-being. My spirituality. What do I need to start doing? Just focus on one thing. What one thing do I need to start doing? It really can be that simple when we just take a moment to stop. Start and continue what is important for us. Let this be a meditation for your day, Your week, Your month or your year. Always an opportunity to thoughtfully check in and self-connect. Thank you for listening to this meditation.
