Not very big,
Aloha.
My name is Reverend Cindy Pollos.
And I wanted to talk about the gift of a smile.
A smile is free.
A smile is contagious.
A smile can actually change the way you're perceiving and receiving energy.
And it's something that you can do that is.
.
.
Really quite amazing.
So I wanted to just go into a state of meditation.
Just close your eyes and.
.
.
Allow yourself to be here now.
Just breathe in that wonderful breath.
And breathe it out.
Relaxing the entire body.
And feeling good.
As you go deeper into yourself.
And into that awareness within.
You'll find you go through possibly stages where you are aware of how your body is feeling,
Sitting,
Ways to allow that flow of energy to come in and out of your body with each breath.
And as you do that,
I'd like you to.
.
.
Do an experiment.
And think of something,
Maybe it's a person,
Maybe it's something in nature,
Maybe it's a friend,
Or maybe it's just you.
Take experience of being.
Let it bring a smile to your face.
Very simply,
Just smile.
Funny the phone decided to make a little sound at the time I said smile so okay I'll let that bring a smile to my face.
And as you smile,
I want you to be aware.
Of how it changes.
The energy field of your face.
It opens up the higher pitch.
Area from your eyebrows up to the top of your head.
Be aware of how that smile opens up your whole energy field on your face.
And let that smile touch you deep within.
And feel how wonderful the gift of a smile is.
The smile is truly amazing.
Beautiful experience.
And it can be shared for absolutely nothing,
For free.
It doesn't cost a thing to smile.
You know another thing about a smile.
Is this contagious?
If you smile at someone,
It's very possible that they will smile back.
And that is so amazing because then they're feeling that.
Gift that opening that door.
Energy of gratefulness that comes with a smile.
We are from.
Actually the time we're born.
Able to smile on through our entire life and that smile can have many energy fields from being peaceful to being friendly.
To being happy,
You know,
So many things attached to just a smile.
So allow that energy.
That beautiful,
Beautiful gift that comes for free with a smile.
To be present with you.
Right here and now.
Now,
I'd like to do a little energy work.
Take that energy that's coming with that smile and send that smile.
Out to someone you care about.
Send them that energy that is a smile of love.
Smile of gratitude.
The smile of recognition.
And send that smile,
That energy floating out through the universe to them.
And their energy field.
Until you sense that connection and let that energy of a smile come back to you.
And breathe it in.
And be grateful,
Just very,
Very grateful.
For being able to have someone you can send a smile to.
Gratitude is another precious gift that is free,
That works miracles,
That works wonders.
As you feel that gratitude.
To have someone to send a smile to.
You are also opening up something inside yourself that recognizes.
How wonderful life is,
And that you have that opportunity to be grateful.
So now,
Just allow that gratitude.
To come to you as a gift.
And send that gratitude out to the world.
Being grateful.
And breathing it in.
And breathing it out.
I'll slowly come out of meditation and I'd like you to make a notation if you can.
About what?
You felt with that gratitude what you were grateful for.
And that energy you felt with a smile and how it made you feel.
As we do that with that recognition in writing down or jotting down or speaking,
Whatever way you make a note.
As you do that,
You're reinforcing it on another level.
Of communication.
And it opens up another whole level up.
That recognition.
That's why I always like to write down after I've meditated something that comes to me.
And I have to say thank you because I'm so very,
Very grateful.
That you take the time to be there.
And to take the time to listen.
And possibly write a note or say something.
It's always such a wonderful,
Amazing gift that is present that can make a difference.
I bow in deepest gratitude and say thank you to you.
With a smile.
