Find a comfortable seat and allow your body to settle.
Let your shoulders drop,
Your jaw relax,
And your hands rest softly.
Begin to notice your breathing without trying to change it.
Just become aware of the gentle rise and fall.
As you breathe,
Feel your body begin to release tension.
Imagine each breath creating more space in your chest,
More room for peace,
More room for love.
Now bring your awareness to your heart.
You might even place your hand there,
Silently say,
Lord,
I open my heart to you.
Invite his presence into this space.
Imagine a warm,
Golden light shining in the center of your chest,
God's love filling and surrounding you.
If you notice any heaviness,
Pain,
Or resistance,
Simply offer it to God.
Let his light soften what feels hard.
Breathe in his peace.
Breathe out anything that no longer serves your heart.
Feel your heart expanding now,
Becoming open and free.
Let love flow through you,
For yourself,
For those you care about,
For the world around you.
See this love as a gentle light extending beyond your body,
Radiating outward.
Imagine it touching your loved ones,
Your community,
Even those you've never met.
A wave of God's love reaching across the earth.
Now rest in his stillness.
Simply be here with God.
Your heart open and at peace.
When you're ready,
Whisper a quiet prayer of gratitude.
Thank you,
Lord,
For filling me with your love and letting it shine through me.
Take one last slow breath in through your nose,
And gently exhale through your mouth.
Feel the peace in your heart remain as you open your eyes.
My heart is open,
God's love flows through me and into the world.
