Change can be difficult for many people. Habits can be notoriously difficult to break when they are well established. One of the most important steps when seeking change is to get your mindset "right". This meditation will set things in motion for making change and guide you into taking easier action steps. Listen once a day for three weeks for maximum benefit.

Hello and welcome to The Daily Insight.

My name's Andrew Johnson.

In today's meditation we'll be focusing on intention for change,

Wishing you a restorative practice.

Now make yourself comfortable sitting or lying down.

And if you choose to,

Place one hand on your chest and one hand on your stomach.

Rest your awareness on your breathing.

And close your eyes.

Notice the flow of your breathing in and out.

In and down and up and out.

And as you notice the flow of your breathing and the difference in temperature between the in-breath and the out-breath and the movement of your hands,

You start to sink a little deeper within.

In this recording we're going to set intentions.

Firstly for the next week.

Over the next seven days,

What would you like to change?

Physically?

Emotionally?

Energetically?

Spiritually?

Financially?

Allow your mind to drift forward in time.

Seven days.

Seven days from now.

And notice what's changed.

Can you see yourself?

What are you wearing?

How are you holding yourself?

How do you look?

How do you feel?

Can you feel the energy of positive change?

Use all your senses.

Allow yourself to soak up the change.

It's a small world and big leaps are possible when you give your inner mind the perfect instructions.

Noticing now how it feels seven days in the future.

How positive.

How confident.

How happy.

Hold on to those positive feelings now.

And set an intention to move towards them over the next seven days.

And so bringing yourself back into the body now,

Back into the moment.

Starting to wiggle the fingers and the toes.

Have a gentle stretch of the arms and the legs.

Have a deep awakening breath.

In and out.

Waking the body.

Stretching the body.

And with another deeper breath now as you exhale.

You can open your eyes and come back to the moment.

Be gentle with yourself.

Andrews 21 days to fitness tracks really helped me to get into the gym and develop that good habit. I’m ready to tackle other good intentions and this is a great short, daily meditation to help me do that. I’m very grateful to Andrew, thank you.
