Good morning,

Welcome to a new day,

A soft beginning,

A quiet place to breathe,

To feel,

To simply be.

Let this morning be an offering,

A chance to return to your own breath,

To the quiet beauty of the world waking up and to the gratitude that lives in your heart.

Take a moment to notice how you feel,

How your body greets the morning.

Breathe in the light,

The soft glow of dawn,

Let it warm your chest and soften your edges.

Feel the gentle weight of your body,

The steady rhythm of your breath,

Inhale,

Exhale,

A quiet prayer of life.

Let yourself pause here,

In this moment you have everything you need,

The air in your lungs,

The ground beneath your feet,

The beating of your own heart,

These are gifts,

Simple and precious.

Whisper thank you to the morning,

To the soft light that touches your skin,

To the cool air that carries the scent of newness,

Thank you,

Thank you.

The world is quiet in these first moments of light,

Just the hush of the world,

The soft song of breath moving in and out.

Feel the morning bird song fill your ears,

A symphony of quiet wonder.

Let the wind brush your face,

Soft as a mother's touch.

Feel the earth's quiet hum beneath you,

The gentle turning of the day,

A reminder that you are part of something vast,

Something ancient and alive.

Dietude,

Let this be enough.

As you move into this day,

Let gratitude be your quiet compass,

Notice the small blessings,

The sun on your face,

The scent of the earth,

The simple ease of each breath.

Let these moments root you in the present,

A reminder that life is made of simple joys.

Bring this gentle gratitude into everything you do today,

The way you move,

The way you speak,

The way you greet the world with open eyes.

Let each breath be a soft yes,

Each step an offering of kindness.

Remember,

There's nothing you need to chase this morning,

Nothing to hold onto,

Just the quiet blessing of being here,

Breathing,

Alive.

Today is a gift,

May you carry this knowing in your heart that you are enough,

That you are whole,

That this morning and every morning is a chance to begin again.

Whisper thank you to the day and let your heart open like a flower in the sun.
