Settle into the body,
You can feel your shoulders and feel your feet on the floor,
Your butt in the seat,
Maybe wiggle,
You can wiggle out any excess energy.
As you exhale,
Allowing the shoulders to drop away from the ears.
Slowly scanning your body,
Looking to see any sensations in the body that are calling for your attention.
Feel free to bring your attention to that body part.
Bringing to mind any intentions you have,
Maybe an intention for the day or for this practice or for the week or for your life,
You're just becoming open to noticing your intentions.
You're not going to do anything with them,
You're just noticing them.
Bringing awareness to the breath,
Noticing the quality of the air as it comes in through your nose,
How it feels as it fills the chest,
Those body sensations of expansion and relaxation as you breathe.
If it helps,
You can say in and out on each breath.
If the mind wanders,
You just escort it back to the in and the out of the breath.
Imagining yourself now on a warm summer day walking through a field,
Imagine the feelings of the grass on your feet and the blue of the sky,
Imagining your perfect summer day.
You might imagine yourself as a child or as an adult now,
Which ever brings a smile to your face quicker.
Just breathing into that smile,
Experiencing the warmth of the sun on your face.
Maybe you're laying,
Maybe you're walking,
But no obligations,
Nothing to do,
You're just enjoying a perfect summer day.
Notice how that feels.
Notice how that feels in your body.
These are easy things to appreciate,
No resistance to allowance here.
Breathing into that experience of appreciation,
If it moves itself into gratitude,
Noticing what that feels like,
Where in the body you feel those experiences,
Those emotions,
Those feelings,
And playing around with what they feel like as you walk through this field or lay on this grass,
See if that doesn't create a bigger smile for yourself,
Where in the body you feel that appreciation,
Where in the body you feel that gratitude,
Just noticing that vibration of gratitude and appreciation.
This is an imaginary scenario.
Sometimes that vibration of gratitude or appreciation starts to pick up things in your life you appreciate.
If there are other things that you can think of in your life that exist,
It gets swept up in this vibration of appreciation and gratitude,
Then allow your mind to wander over those real experiences,
Your partner,
Your children,
Your house,
Taking the time to appreciate each of these new thoughts,
Noticing how it feels in the body,
Noticing what happens to your sense of the vibration as you add more people and more scenarios to this,
Finally smiling and thanking and appreciating everyone in your vortex,
Everyone in your vibrational space,
And you don't have to send them away.
You can keep them with you throughout your day.
That's your baseline vibration now.
Anytime you wanted to practice a sunshine daydream,
Bring them on,
They're available.
When you're ready,
You can take a few more breaths,
Open your eyes,
And come on back.
