Sometimes life is moving so fast that we barely have time to stop and notice the beauty around us.
This meditation is an opportunity to do just that.
The image here is of the tree outside my office.
I am grateful that I took the time to appreciate it and its beauty and create this meditation.
Will you find a comfortable place where you can be for the duration?
Let's find a nice straight spine and take a deep breath in,
A full breath out.
Breathing in and out once more.
A deep cleansing breath in and a full clearing breath out.
Start to settle into that softer,
Gentler breath,
Allowing each cycle to relax your body.
Allow it to quiet your mind and let each breath just massage your soul.
No matter what is going on in your life right now,
Try to set that aside just for a few moments.
Take a look around the room.
What is an unseen beauty that you may or may not have noticed before?
Is it in the room,
Outside the window?
Is it a person around you?
It can be anything or anyone.
Just allow yourself to see it.
Close your eyes and bring its image into your mind.
As you breathe,
Let this one thing blossom into more things of beauty.
Feel your body relaxing more and more with each thought,
Beautiful thing around you.
Feel the gratitude that comes with witnessing all of this beauty.
Allow your heart to be filled up until it's overflowing with that appreciation.
It's time to come back now to your physical space.
Start to bring some movement into your body,
Your fingers and toes.
Take a deep breath in and release.
Thank you for joining today.
I hope you found all kinds of beauty around you.
Namaste.
