Awaken with gratitude.
A seven-day journey.
Day six,
Receiving with an open heart.
Good morning,
Beautiful souls,
And welcome to day six of Awaken With Gratitude.
Thank you for returning and giving yourself this time today.
Over the last few days,
We've explored gratitude for the present moment.
The simple things.
Our bodies.
Life's lessons and the people who have touched our lives.
Today,
I invite you to explore something many of us find difficult.
Receiving.
So often we find it easier to give than to receive.
We give our time.
I love.
And our energy.
And sometimes without even realising it,
We forget.
That we too are worthy of receiving.
Receiving support.
For saving love.
Receiving kindness.
Receiving joy.
Receiving rest.
Today I invite you to come back.
To your heart space because coming back.
To our heart space is one of the most aligned.
And truthful gifts we can give ourselves.
So often we live in our minds.
Overthinking.
Loring.
And trying to control what comes next.
But when we return to our hearts.
We return to ourselves.
From this space,
We remember that we are supported.
We remember that we are worthy.
We remember that we are allowed to receive.
And before we begin today's meditation,
I invite you to think of three things you have received in your life.
That you are grateful for.
Perhaps it's love.
Friendship.
Support during a difficult season.
An opportunity or simply the gift of another day.
Allow yourself to receive those blessings with gratitude.
Now find a comfortable position and gently close your eyes if that feels comfortable for you.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently breathe out.
Again.
Breathing in.
And breathing out.
Place one hand on your heart.
And one hand on your belly,
Your solar plex.
Allow your shoulders to soften.
And simply notice your breath.
There is nowhere you need to be right now.
Nothing you need to prove.
Nothing you need to earn,
Just this moment.
And as you breathe.
Imagine.
Your heart gently opening.
Allow yourself to receive the love.
Support.
Peace and abundance that already exists around you.
Allow yourself to receive without guilt.
Allow yourself to receive without resistance.
Allow yourself to receive without needing to do more.
Breathing in gratitude.
Breathing out,
Gratitude.
Now repeat softly after me.
I am so.
I am enough.
I am supported.
And I am love.
Again,
I am safe.
I am enough.
I am supported.
And I am loved.
Allow those words to settle deeply within your body.
Take one final deep breath in.
And slowly breathe out.
And as you move through your day today.
Notice where life is trying to support you.
Perhaps through a kind word.
A helping hand.
A moment of rest or an unexpected blessing.
And if you feel called to journal.
Please allow yourself that space.
Perhaps write down three things you are grateful for,
To have received.
Or any thoughts.
Feelings.
Memories.
Or messages that come through for your time.
Together.
Trust yourself.
Trust for the Risers.
Thank you for sharing this time with me.
Have a beautiful day.
And I'll see you tomorrow for our final day together.
Day seven.
Blessings.
This is Michelle Le.
