Hello and welcome to the Writer's Club. My name is Darius. And I am so grateful that you and I get this time together. Let's begin our practice. If your eyes are open, I'd like to invite you to close them now. As we begin to go inwards together. Coming in contact. With our hearts. Taking longer, Deeper breaths. Slowing everything down. Our practice today is inspired by the sun, Is inspired by the summer, I am making this meditation. On a day very close to the summer solstice. The one day in the year where we have the most daylight, Most sun. And the sun always reminds me of the summer in the summer. Always reminds me. That nobody knows when it will be our last summer. Nobody knows when it will be your last summer. And that can be scary. And if you will allow it, It can be energizing. It can give us courage. It can give us focus. So continue taking deep breaths here with me. Breathing in. Big exhale out. I am here. In the light of the sun. I receive energy, I receive confidence. I receive. Life. From the sun. I am here in the light of the sun. I am confident. I am bold. I am brave. I am here. To share my stories with the world. I am here in the light of the sun. Just take a moment. To get blessed up by the sun, The incredible sun, It is here. Giving all of us energy, All of us life force energy. Take a nice deep breath together, Receiving the energy of the sun, Receiving the confidence of the sun now, Breathing in. Big exhale out. This is our last song this morning before I open up some space for us to write. There is an opportunity here for you to receive energy. There is an opportunity here for you to receive confidence. There is an opportunity here for you to receive whatever it is you need today. So that you can share your stories. So that you can share your writing, So that you can share your gifts with the world. So I'm gonna sit back and stay quiet for the rest of this song and just invite you to gently Continue taking deep breaths, Gently continue opening your heart, Your mind, Your being. To the many blessings of the sun. Bravo dear artist, Bravo dear writer. You made it to the end of our meditation today and for that I am so grateful. Hopefully.
