If you want to feel happy,
You must be happy.
If you want to feel joy,
You must be joy.
If you want to feel peace,
You must be peace.
So let's begin stepping into the emotion that you choose to feel.
Sitting up nice and tall,
Straight spine,
Feel your tailbone rooting deep into the center of the earth,
Gathering up energy from the center of the earth and letting that energy come all the way up to the tailbone,
Through the spine,
All the way to the heart.
Let that energy rest in your heart for just a moment and notice the softness in your face,
The softness in your eyes as you turn your gaze upward toward your third eye.
Activate that inner knowing,
That inner being,
That inner peace,
Joy,
And happiness.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Gently feel the breath come in and out through the nose.
Let the jaw be soft,
Resting the tongue on the roof of the mouth.
Breathing in through the nose,
Exhale through the nose.
Even notice the gentle smile on your face,
Beginning to feel at ease,
Softness in the muscles with every breath in,
Lengthening in the spine.
Shoulders drop,
Softly in their sockets.
Bring your attention again back to your heart at the center of the chest,
Breathing in and breathing out.
How do you wish to feel today in this very moment right here and right now?
How about bringing more joy to your world?
Joy must first come from the inside so that you can shine it out all around you.
Breathing in and breathing out.
Joy.
What does joy look like?
Paint a picture in your mind's eye of joy.
See joy with all your senses.
What colors do you see?
What can you touch?
What do you feel?
Any scents such as fresh flowers,
The smell of an ocean side.
Begin to feel,
Sense,
And be in joy.
Let it penetrate every cell in your body.
Breathe it in deep into the belly,
Into the lungs.
Exhale,
Become lighter,
Happier,
Clearer.
Feel the joy in the center of your heart.
What does it feel like?
You have the image of joy painted on a movie screen in front of you.
Step into the feeling.
How will you walk?
How will you talk?
How do you act when you're just full of joy from your toes all the way to the top of your head?
Embracing the emotion that you choose to feel in this moment.
Let it wrap around you like a beautiful blanket.
Let it rush through your entire body as it pulses through your nervous system and through your blood veins.
Let joy fill you up.
Let it create the smile on your face.
Let it create the spring in your steps.
Let joy create the words that come out of your mouth.
Let joy create the reflection that you see in the mirror.
See yourself right now as if you're looking into a mirror.
Your eyes are shining bright.
There's even a little sparkle.
There's a smile on your face.
You're wearing your favorite outfit,
Maybe a fancy hat or a scarf.
You're confident.
You're excited for your day.
You feel joy pulsing through your entire being because you choose that you are joy.
You are what you choose to feel in this very moment.
Embrace it.
Love it.
Nurture it.
Declare it.
Repeating after me,
I am joy.
I am full of joy.
From my head to my toes,
I step in joy every day,
Declaring that I am who I choose to be.
I choose joy.
I choose happiness from within and I shine it out to the world around me.
Big breath in.
Big breath out.
Big breath in.
Big breath out.
One more inhale and exhale.
Placing the palms together at the heart center as your heart is so bright and brilliant right now,
Shining forth more joy,
More happiness than ever before.
And we say,
And so it is.
