Good morning my friend,
Welcome to this day.
Allow yourself to be with you fully before you step into the day.
Closing your eyes if you'd like.
And just greet yourself as you greet this day.
Take a deep breath in to arrive,
Inhale and exhale settle.
Let yourself just be in this quiet moment before the day begins,
Before all that you get to do today.
Just pause.
Notice how you woke up today,
Without any judgment,
Just notice how you feel,
What your mood is.
Checking in kindly with your heart,
Noticing the quality of your mind.
My friend,
We have to choose to make it a great day,
Sometimes we have to try harder than other days,
It's a conscious effort to keep your head up and your heart open as you move through your day.
This day can be beautiful based on your choices,
Based on how you see the day.
Today doesn't have to be perfect to be good.
You don't have to be perfect to make an impact.
Breathe in.
Every breath you take is gently awakening you to this day.
How can you make it a great day today?
What will you say yes to?
What will you say no to?
What is a non-negotiable for you today to make today great?
How can you support yourself today?
Before the day truly begins,
What do you need to hear?
Feeling into your own support,
Your own encouragement.
Zaina Keithley writes,
And one day you realize you're going to be okay.
It's not an affirmation you have to repeat to yourself until you finally believe it.
It's not a feeling you're trying to force.
It's a deep knowing,
A quiet sense of peace.
You're no longer holding yourself hostage.
No longer living in endless mental loops of worry and fear.
You've let go of trying to control every outcome and attempting to force things that aren't right.
You trust what you can't see,
But what you can feel.
You honor your heart's wisdom,
And you know that the universe has got you.
You feel it deep within your bones.
You're never truly alone.
You're always supported,
Always seen,
Always loved.
And now your eyes are open,
Your inner vision is clear,
And somehow you know that this chapter will be different from all the ones before.
And you're ready.
It's an honest,
Pure understanding that comes from the deepest,
Most intrinsic part of you.
You're ready.
You're ready for this day.
Breath in.
Release it.
Breath out.
Notice what has opened in your heart,
Your mind.
A change in your perspective.
A sense of empowerment,
Calm and readiness for this day.
Thanking yourself for choosing this gentle awakening.
And thanking yourself in advance for trying your best to make it a great day.
You are worthy.
Inhale,
Lifting your heart,
Your chin.
Exhale,
Drop your shoulders.
Feel rooted here and supported.
Bring awareness back to your surroundings really slow.
Only if you're ready,
Blinking your eyes open if they were closed,
Gently looking around to reorient yourself in your space.
If there's a window nearby,
Look outside.
I hope you feel ready,
My friend,
Because you are.
Make it a great day.
From my heart to yours.
