Being conscious enough to recognize how tiny we are, How small we are, And the grand scheme of life. The anxieties, The overwhelm, Relaxing the jaw, Relaxing the belly, Relaxing the hands and feet as you feel the stillness of the ground beneath you. Remember that the ground is always still. Unless you're in an earthquake, The ground is always still. Feeling that stillness underneath you as you breathe in. If your mind has been wanting to think, Wanting to roam, Now is the time to allow your mind total freedom to think and to roam. Letting go of the past, Letting go of the future, Tuning into this moment, The aliveness, The uniqueness of this moment. As you breathe in, I want you to visualize your heart expanding, Opening, Becoming more fragrant, More receptive as you breathe in and breathe out, Breathing in, Breathing out. Becoming aware as you hold that breath, Remaining relaxed. As you hold the breath, The color for today, If that counts as a color, The number is 55 and the animal is a polar bear. I thank you for joining me across time and space. Sending you a big hug, My dear friend. Wishing you an abundance of love, Resourcefulness, Creativity, Consciousness, Being conscious enough to recognize how tiny we are, How small we are, And the grand scheme of life, Not in a depressing way, But in a liberating way. To not take things so serious, To know that it's not that important, Actually leads to a more significant life because then we can have more fun, We can be more playful, We can enjoy when we remember how small that we are. Even this earth is a tiny little dot in the grand scheme of the universe, And that universe is a little speck in a greater universe, And so on and so forth. And here we are feeling super big, Super large, And just see the point, How that creates suffering for us, How that creates unnecessary drama for us. The need to defend ourselves, To explain ourselves, To be seen, To be heard, To be understood, All becomes less of a desire, Less of a need when we realize how small we are and how limited our time is. And with that, I will see you back here tomorrow with love.
