When You Need More Strength And Energy

This meditation is a great way to start your day, especially in those moments when you could use a little more strength and energy. We'll imagine your day going better than you could have ever imagined. This is also a practice to ground, connect with your heart, and boost your confidence and self-love.

Optional journaling prompts: Write yourself a “thank you for the hard work” letter.

Imagine you are the manager of a company, and one of your employees — you — has been doing an exceptional job lately. You want to acknowledge and celebrate their hard work, their progress, and their heart.
- What would you say to them?
- What would you thank them for?

Make it honest. Make it supportive. Make it real.

Good morning, And welcome to The Artist's Morning. My name's Darius, And I'm so grateful that you and I get this time together. Our practice today is intended to help give you some extra strength, Some extra focus, Some extra energy for your day. 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, Before our day fully starts and we start placing energy into activities, Into others, Let's begin by connecting with ourselves. Beginning to take a few deeper breaths, Really pulling your presence inwards. Breathing into your heart. Hello, Dear heart. Hello, Old friend. Connecting with your heart here. How is your heart this morning? There's no right or wrong answer. We're just holding space for any energy that's alive in your heart. No judgment, No need to feel anything or do anything in particular. Just holding space for your big, Beautiful, Generous heart. Sometimes our hearts need affection. Sometimes our hearts need a little cuddle. You're open to it. Place one or two hands on your heart. Just hold your heart here. Hello, Dear heart. I feel you. I am with you. I'm so grateful for you, Dear heart. You can leave your hands here or place them back down on your lap. I'm going to take a few more energizing and cleansing breaths into our hearts. Deep breath in. Imagining your heart expanding in every direction, Taking up more space. Big exhale out. Ah, Just letting go of anything you no longer need. Continue taking deep breaths here. If your mind is getting very active, We're going to soften the mind. Soften your forehead, Soften your jaw, Soften your shoulders. And soften your mind. Hello, Beautiful mind. I love you as well. Thank you for everything you do. Continuing to take deep breaths, Breathing into the bottom of your belly. Nice exhales out, Allowing energy to flow in and out. Bringing fresh, New energy to your body. There's a new day ahead of us. New opportunity to express, To share our gifts, To connect. By connecting to our hearts, We allow our channels to be open. We allow our presence to be deep. Heart open. Voice open. Hands open, Vision open. Feet grounded and ready. I am ready for this new day. I am ready for this new day. Today, I choose to share my gifts with the world. Today, I choose to walk into every room as myself. Allowing your spine to get gently taller. Allowing your shoulders to drop and fall back. Sitting in a gentle but ready position for this new day. New energy working its way into your system. Old energy leaving. I am strong and healthy. I am strong and healthy. I am brave and bold. I am brave and bold. I let go of thoughts and energy that no longer serves me. Take a nice deep breath here with your exhale. Just imagine anything you no longer need just leaving with your exhale. Let's do it together. Breathing in. New creative energy coming into your system. Awaken, Awaken, Awaken. Big exhale out. Uncertainty leaving. Doubt leaving. Your mind, Body, And soul is getting stronger here. Mind, Body, And soul is getting stronger here. I'm taking a moment to imagine your day. Maybe there are activities, Maybe there are meetings, Maybe there are projects you're working on. Let's take a moment to go through your day and visualize things going better than you could have ever imagined. People are smiling. You are smiling. There's laughter. There's focus. There's ease. There's rest. There's joy. Don't overthink this. Just go through your day visualizing things are going better than you could have ever imagined. And if you find yourself getting stuck or your mind is overthinking, Return to the breath. Deep, Circular breaths. Heart open. Voice open. Vision open. Hands open. Feet grounded and ready. Today is going to be a great day. Today is going to be a great day. Today is a blessing. Today is a fresh canvas. Nice deep breath here. Big exhale out. This is our last song, Dear artist. I'm going to leave some space for you to pull in energy. There's energy all around us. The sun will give you strength. The wind will give you strength. The ground, The earth will give you strength. The stars, The birds, The trees. All around you, There is support. All around you, There is strength and confidence. Things you don't know, People you don't know, Angels you might not be aware of. There is support all around you. Are you open to receiving this support? Are you open to receiving this strength? Take a few deep breaths here. And if you are open to receiving it, It's right here waiting for you. Bravo, Dear artist. Bravo, Dear creator. We made it to the end of another meditation. And for that, I am so grateful for those that are joining live at the artist morning. I'm going to put 20 minutes on the clock and share a journaling prompt. It's connected to our theme today. Allow us to do some private personal journaling. And of course, If you're catching us on a replay, Perhaps on insight timer, You can do the same. Thank you once again for meditating with me. My name is Darius, And I will see you next time.

Thank you Darius for an amazing beginning to this crazy day ahead! I’m spearheading a fundraiser at work; it’s been time consuming and exhausting but I know it will pay off in the end. It will be a fun day, I just have to remember to keep my head and ask for help when I need it. I definitely needed this energy boost, Thank you so much!
