This is an Introduction to The Present Moment – A Stoic Meditation Practice. This Stoic-inspired meditation invites you to embrace the present moment, guided by the wisdom of Marcus Aurelius. Begin by finding a comfortable position, closing your eyes, and focusing on your breath. Let go of past regrets and future worries, grounding yourself in the here and now. Feel the freedom of the present—where you are unburdened by what has been and what may come. Allow peace to settle within you as you accept the moment just as it is. Cultivate gratitude for the simple act of breathing and the awareness it brings. As you breathe, imagine a light within you, expanding with each breath, symbolizing your inner strength and wisdom. In this moment, recognize that you are complete, just as you are. When ready, gently open your eyes, carrying the clarity and calm of the present into your day.
