Good morning and welcome to the Artist's Morning.
My name is Darius and today's theme is gratitude.
The intention of our meditation this morning is to help start your day in the energy of gratitude.
Let's begin by finding a nice seat,
Either sitting with a tall spine or if you like,
You can do this meditation laying down as well.
Your eyes are open.
I'd like to invite you to close them now.
Let's slowly land in our seats here in our bodies and begin to notice what's alive inside us.
Connecting with your breath,
Noticing the rising and falling of your chest as you breathe in,
In,
And out.
Let's take a couple of deeper breaths here together.
Breathing in,
Letting it all go.
Deep breath here,
Breathing in and letting it all go.
Gratitude is a powerful frequency.
There's a lot going on in our worlds every day.
Connecting with the energy of gratitude can help us find our center,
Help us get stronger,
And help us become magnets for more joy,
Love,
And abundance.
Sometimes to get to gratitude,
It's helpful to zoom out.
When we zoom out,
It can be easier to get perspective around how much abundance,
How many blessings and even miracles exist all around us.
Take a deep breath here and if you're open to it,
I'll guide you through an exercise to help us zoom out together.
Breathing in,
I want you to imagine your perspective is able to gently float above your seat.
Just notice and look over yourself wherever you happen to be this morning.
In your seat,
In your bed,
Just zoom out.
Notice what's around your space.
Can you see yourself?
As you float above yourself here,
I want you to find three things you are grateful for.
Overthink it.
How small,
How silly,
How sacred.
Find three things you are grateful for.
As you look down onto yourself,
I want you to imagine this golden attitude,
Warm,
Comforting,
Radiant light grows from the center of your chest.
It expands around.
It's radiant and it's gently pulsing.
It's golden and it gets bigger as you stay in the energy of gratitude.
Golden light.
Let's find some more things we are grateful for and watch as this golden bubble expand.
You grateful for.
This is our last song.
I'm going to leave some space for you.
Build this beautiful bubble of gratitude.
Overthink it.
How small,
How silly,
How sacred.
The things you are grateful for.
As this golden gratitude grows,
You become a magnet of joy and abundance.
Let's take a moment just to sit in this golden bubble of gratitude we have created.
Maybe your bubble is smaller and it fits in your hand.
Maybe it's bigger and it takes up the whole room.
It doesn't matter.
Every day we are different.
We are all on our own paths.
All that matters is that gratitude is available here.
The energy,
The frequency,
The magnetism.
And if you choose to grow this bubble,
All you need to do is zoom out and take stock of all of the blessings that already exist in your life.
Let's take a deep breath to close our meditation here.
Breathing in.
Bravo dear artist.
Well done.
For those of you that are joining us live at the artist morning,
I'm going to put 20 minutes on the clock and allow us to do some private personal journaling.
If you're catching us on a replay,
Perhaps on inside timer,
Of course you can do the same.
Put some time on your clock.
Thank you for meditating with me this morning.
My name is Darius and I will see you next time.
