Transcript

Settle yourself into a comfortable position.

Close your eyes.

Relax your jaw.

You are centered.

You are centered.

You are centered.

Welcome to a hit of hope.

Your body is not in the past.

Your body is not in the future.

Bring your mind to your breath.

Bring your breath into your body.

Be here now.

It doesn't matter what you think you did.

It doesn't matter what mistakes you made.

Work to encourage what is good.

Let go of what is not.

Sit still.

Follow your breath.

Connect to your heart.

Someday,

This too will be a memory.

You can freak out or you can settle in.

To keep going,

Be in and with before going through.

You are not the victim.

You have power.

Commit to the things you can change.

Choose to turn fear into abundance.

Life's lessons never end.

Quiet yourself and listen.

What habits are no longer serving you,

Do not be ruled by them.

What thoughts have turned into knives?

If you wouldn't say them to someone you love,

Do not say them to yourself.

Refuse to be in an adversarial relationship with yourself and choose your verbs wisely.

Listen to what is underneath it all.

Open to what is.

Be still.

Behold.

Embrace.

Be bold in your fight.

Quit turning to the things that don't work.

Move away from numbness.

Seek wonder.

Do not give up.

Do not give in.

Practice over and over to get to a better self.

Let yes guide you to the next living thing.

Namaste.

I reflect often on your meditations. I think about all the times that I feel that I am not important to anyone. Well, today is my birthday and so many people reached out to me who I thought probably forgot about me. Was I WRONG!! I started partying with a group of friends for lunch and the day just kept getting better! My sister I live with spoiled rotten.Today I felt all the love I received and came to the conclusion that I am important in so many people’s lives 😊. I pray this feeling continues.πŸ™πŸ» I think the most special part of my day was that my 97 year old aunt was able to celebrate with me for a beautiful dinner.(My aunt actually looks about 75 years old ! I AM important to so many people and I like that!πŸ€—

Be in and with before going through. Sounds easier than it actually is, but worth the trip. Lately I feel like all I can do is be centered. That's all I can manage, but if I can only manage one thing being centered is probably a good one. ( starting to think my other chakras must be really jealous of the root. Because I spend all my time there now. πŸ˜‰ Namaste πŸ™

You really hit the ball out of the park with this one. Thank you; I am out of that horrendous darkness this morning. Recognizing that I am the ailment as well as the cure....what an implication! Heal oneself and the world must be healed. Intoxicated with spirit at the moment....Peace to you
