Take a deep breath,

In through your nose,

Hold it,

And exhale,

Relax everything,

Your whole body,

Your mind,

Your thoughts and your feelings,

Just drop everything for a moment,

A moment of pure being,

Nothing to try,

Nothing to do,

Just allow for yourself to be,

And you always already are,

So there is literally nothing that you have to do.

Just effortlessly be aware of the fact that you are,

Right here and right now,

Beyond your thoughts and beyond your feelings and beyond the sensations of the physical body,

You are,

Become aware of that.

Whenever a thought arises,

Just give it away,

Just imagine giving all of your thoughts and all of your feelings away,

Back to creation,

And come back to this awareness of being,

Of I exist,

And remember that in order to rest as beingness itself,

There is nothing you have to do,

Because you always already are,

Without any effort.

And can you feel that by getting out of your own way,

There is room for bliss and for happiness to arise,

Happiness that has always already been within you,

And happiness that doesn't need anything in order to exist,

Always already present,

You just blocked it with your own ideas and your own thoughts,

So get out of your own way,

And allow for this effortless happiness to arise,

Instead of trying to bring it up,

Do nothing at all,

And create space by just being,

Space for the love of God,

The love of your essence,

To automatically shine through you,

Give creation space to create a magical life for you,

Get out of your own way,

Just be,

And trust,

Open up,

Become empty,

And let the love enter your being,

Live in that love,

That is all you have to do,

To live a life of effortless elegance,

Of effortless creation,

Be empty,

Be a vessel of creation,

Bow,

For a moment,

Just rest,

In love,

In bliss,

Effortlessly.

Thank you so much,

And have a wonderful day,

And bring with you this attitude of effortlessness.
