When we feel lost and can't see the road ahead of us,
We often fall into doubt.
We imagine a bleak future and worry that our dreams are just fantasies.
We question if we'll ever meet the bliss that our hearts feel destined for.
It's in these times of darkness that we must remember the nature of our beings.
We are born from magnificent light.
Even when we can't see it or feel it,
We are eternally cocooned in incandescence.
We are connected to the pulse of every living being on this planet.
We're bound to receive blessings day in and day out.
That's our inheritance into this life.
Writer and poet Mary Oliver once wrote,
On the beach at dawn,
Four small stones clearly hugging each other.
How many kinds of love might there be in the world?
And how many formations might they make?
And who am I ever to imagine I could know such a marvelous business?
When the sun broke,
It poured willingly its light over the stones that did not move.
Not at all.
Just as,
To its always generous term,
It shed its light on me,
My own body that loves,
Equally,
To hug another body.
When we step into fear,
We forget our connection to the divine.
For if we're fearful of what's to come,
We disconnect from the truth that no matter where we go,
There's always love.
Love is the seed,
The root,
The bud,
The stem,
The leaf,
The petal,
The flower,
The ascent toward light in the sky.
Like the generous sun,
It shines over us all day long with no need for anything in return.
It gives and it gives as we soak in its warmth.
Why worry then that there's darkness up ahead?
For after every nightfall,
There's always a sweet dawn.
Focus on the first sight of morning light and not the long passage of the black sky.
Even the late hours after sunset offer relief from the moon.
Take a deep breath through your nose and imagine inhaling honeyed light that eternally surrounds your being.
See it filling your entire body with the warmth so vast,
It envelopes you in love.
Exhale long and slowly through your mouth and send that light back into your orbit.
See yourself as a conduit for receiving and giving unconditional love,
Blessings,
And light.
Take another deep breath as you send that light even deeper into the depths of your being.
As you feel oxygen fill your lungs,
Imagine yourself shining in a pure bright light.
Exhale long and slowly and feel the buzzing warmth of your being as you deepen your connection to the divine nature of your soul.
As you continue breathing on your own in this way,
See yourself standing on a stage with a spotlight on you.
Imagine positive and beautiful experiences happening to you.
Continue watching as you stand in confidence,
Smiling.
Understand in your truth and expect the absolute best for yourself.
You're a magnet for loving people and experiences to enter your world.
You're a powerful force that only attracts the highest vibrations from everything and everyone around you.
You naturally trust the abundant flow of the universe and understand that you are always provided for.
You are always in good hands.
You are always surrounded in love.
You are already the manifestation of your dreams.
You like a river,
Let the current of abundance flow to you and from you.
You like the universe have everything you need inside of you.
Breathe here for a few moments.
Continue inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth and imagining yourself experiencing a life of your dreams.
You are� Now,
Repeat the following affirmations to yourself.
I am grounded and at peace with each moment.
I trust the flow of my life.
I love the flow of my life.
My present and my future are already abundant,
Beautiful,
And well.
I am abundant,
Beautiful,
And well.
I am a powerful creator and I choose to create a life that feels good for me.
I choose to create my life with love,
Trust,
And passion.
I know all good things are coming my way.
When I relax and let go,
It's easier for my dreams to meet me.
When I relax and trust,
I become a more powerful magnetic force.
All is always well in my world.
Now as you deepen your breath,
Slowly bring movement back into your fingers and toes.
Turn the corners of your lips into a smile and whenever you're ready,
Open your eyes.
Remember as you go forth into the masterpiece of your life that you are the artist,
You are the visionary,
You are the creator.
Within you is an abundance of power.
Sending love always.
Love Danielle.
