Awaken with gratitude.
Day four.
Awaken with Gratitude,
A seven-day journey.
Day for.
Gratitudes for life's lessons.
Good morning,
Beautiful souls,
And welcome to Day Awakened with Gratitude.
Thank you for returning and giving yourself this time today.
Life doesn't always unfold the way we planned.
There have been moments of joy.
And moments of challenge.
Seasons that stretched us.
Break us open.
And asks us to grow in ways we never expected.
And while some experiences may have been difficult,
They have all played a part in shaping the person you are today.
Today,
I invite you to reflect.
On the lessons life has gifted you.
Perhaps you've learned the importance of setting boundaries.
Perhaps you've discovered your own strength.
Perhaps you've learned to trust yourself more deeply.
Or perhaps you realise that even in the hardest seasons,
You were never as broken as you once believed.
Before we begin today's meditation,
I invite you to think of three lessons you are grateful for.
Not because everything was easy.
Not because you would choose to relieve those experiences.
But because those lessons help shape the person you are becoming.
Allow yourself to acknowledge how far you've come.
And find a comfortable position.
Close your eyes if that feels comfortable for you.
And take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently breathe out.
Again,
Breathing in.
And breathing out.
And place one hand on your heart.
And one hand on your belly,
Your solar plex.
Allow your body to soften.
There is nowhere you need to be right now.
Nothing you knew to solve.
Nothing you need to fix.
Just this moment.
And as you breathe.
Allow yourself to reflect on your journey.
See yourself through the seasons of your life.
Their hives.
The lows.
The moments that changed you.
And rather than judging your past,
Simply honor it.
Honour the person who kept going.
Honor the lessons that helped you grow.
Honor the wisdom you've gained along the way.
Breathing in gratitude.
Breathing out gratitude.
Now repeat softly after me.
I am safe.
I am enough.
I am supported.
I am love.
I am safe.
I'm enough.
I am supported and I am loved.
And allow those words to settle deeply within your body.
And take one final deep breath in.
And slowly breathe out.
And as you move through your day today.
Remember.
That every experience has contributed to the person you are today.
And if you feel called to journal.
Please allow yourself that space.
Perhaps write down three lessons you are grateful for.
Or any thoughts.
Feelings.
Memories or messages that came through for you during our time together.
Trust yourself.
Trust Water Rises.
Thank you for sharing this time with me.
Have a beautiful day and I'll see you tomorrow for day five.
Blessings.
This is Michelle Lay.
