Hello,
And thank you for being here.
Let's take a long,
Slow,
Deep breath in and relax.
Close your eyes.
Let's take a journey.
A journey to gratitude.
Let's start by asking ourselves,
Do I have shelter today?
What's my home like?
Have I eaten?
Do I have enough food?
Am I wearing comfortable clothing that keeps my body warm and protected?
The easy stuff.
Is there enough for you today,
Right where you are,
Right in this moment?
And is it enough to just ask these questions,
To have these needs met?
Let's go further.
Are you able to love another today,
Even if it's hard?
Even if you don't want to?
Can you go out into the world today and just find a single moment to smile at another human?
Just glance over and let them know that they're not alone.
You might ask yourself,
In this moment,
Where can I be useful today?
How can I be helpful to others?
Don't forget about you.
Ask yourself,
Where do I need support today?
How can I be supported?
We're on this journey.
It's a safe space.
So let's take a moment and imagine a carousel in the middle of a park.
And on each horse,
As the carousel rotates,
Picture something that you love.
Picture a person,
An activity that you love to do,
A pet,
An idea,
A dream you have.
Something that brings you joy,
Makes you feel really good.
Imagine how it smells in the park,
All the colors,
And this beautiful carousel rotating with all the things that you love.
You watch them go by in your joy.
What do you feel right now when you see this love?
Cherish it for a moment.
What do you feel?
Yeah.
Take a little deep breath in and release.
Now take a moment.
Stand next to the carousel and jump on it.
Very good.
This is you going round and around with all the things you love,
All the things you cherish,
Your joy.
Let it go faster and faster and more beautiful and add to it whatever you like.
Everything can fit on this carousel,
All of it.
That's right.
There you go.
Now imagine this carousel filled with love and joy,
Dreams,
People,
Pets,
Ideas,
And allow them to just become a color,
Any color you like.
That's right.
The carousel and the people and the ideas,
They just change into this color,
This giant beautiful ball,
Beautiful colorful energy.
That's right.
A ball of colorful energy.
See the color glowing brightly and imagine it expand all around you,
Covering your body and the space where you sit.
Very good.
Allow that feeling,
That color,
Those dreams,
Those people to just cover you,
To surround you,
To overwhelm you.
See the color glowing brightly and imagine it growing wider and bigger.
Let it encompass the room you are in.
Yes,
The place where you are right now.
See it growing larger and larger.
Rising up out of the room you are in,
Encompassing the trees,
The buildings,
The parks,
Encompassing the city or township you are in.
That's right.
Your colorful energy spreading out over the town you live in.
See it grow bigger and brighter.
Watch it encompass the country you are in.
See it spread to the sea that borders the continent you are in.
Yeah.
Watch it spread your light,
Your beautiful color,
And see it travel to the next continent and to the next continent and encompass the ice caps.
That's right.
Imagine your beautiful,
Specific color,
Your bright,
Healing color,
Embrace the sky,
And off into the stratosphere,
Looking out over the earth.
Very nice.
See your color,
Your energy of love spread around the globe,
Vibrating and healing our beautiful planet.
Our home.
Filled with courageous,
Beautiful people and wildlife and mountains,
Delicious foods,
Joyful activities,
Beautiful ideas.
Pulse your color all around the earth and heal our home.
Yes.
Heal our home.
Let's go further.
See your beautiful,
Glowing energy surround and expand the sun,
The moon,
And the stars.
And watch as it spreads to the deepest parts of the universe.
Yes.
Your shine,
Your beautiful energy,
All of it,
Spread it all around.
Empty yourself of it like a pail of water pouring out from the depths of your heart.
Allow your specific,
Beautiful color,
Your energy,
To just flow.
Isn't it interesting that you can't run out of love?
It just keeps pouring out,
This endless,
Beautiful,
Specific color.
Your specific energy just flows.
And even when things get hard or confusing,
It's still here.
Your love,
Your specific light,
Your specific color.
Even when times of struggle and pain overwhelm the day,
You are still here,
Shining your light,
Your color.
Even when the lessons of life seem pointless and unnecessary,
You're still shining your light.
You may not see it.
Your specific color,
Your energy,
Remains.
This is who you are.
This is who you truly are.
This unending vessel of energy.
The giver of love,
Even through painful experiences.
You are a teacher.
You are a student.
You are a messenger.
This very specific color,
This beautiful light that you shine,
Leads others from the darkness.
Your light is like no other.
It's just like your fingerprint,
And it is encoded with your message,
With your vibration.
And it draws to you your highest purpose.
Even when things seem hopeless,
You are still here.
This light,
Your vibration,
Your very specific color,
Is your gift,
Unbreakable,
Unhindered,
Unstoppable.
That's right.
You have never lost your way.
You have been on your path all along.
Not one single mistake was made.
Not one single accident has taken place.
You are a guide to kindness.
And this path you chose long before you came here.
To your home.
To your planet.
To our home.
To this planet.
It is your birthright,
Your place,
Right here in the now.
It's right where you belong.
We thank you.
We honor you.
And we are filled up by your shine,
By your light.
You are so important here.
Your message is filled with purpose.
All that is known and all that remains a mystery,
All of it is here right now in your truth,
In the depths of your gratitude.
And so it is.
