Each moment of each day I can choose.
In this moment I choose to take some time for myself.
I choose to relax and let go.
To allow my breathing to settle into an easy,
Natural rhythm.
To sink into the surface supporting me.
I choose to become still like the surface of a calm lake,
Perfectly reflecting everything about me.
From this place of peace and calmness and clarity,
I can choose to respond and not react.
Each moment of each day there are so many things I can choose.
I choose.
I choose to consciously make choices that support and nurture me and others.
Like the sages of old,
I embrace the ancient wisdoms to ensure that all is in balance and harmony.
I choose to be responsible for all of my thoughts,
Words,
Actions and deeds.
To ensure that the energy emanating from me is full of positivity,
Empathy and compassion.
Like the sunlight streaming down upon the earth,
I radiate warmth and the light of life.
I choose to see each situation with an unbiased perspective,
Not just from my position and point of view.
Like a bird flying high in the sky,
I see the whole picture and the relationship between all the parts.
I choose to listen carefully to all points of view,
To interspace the periods of noise with moments of silence.
Like the wind whispering across the land,
I pause and create pockets of stillness,
Allowing the lands and the seas to settle in peace.
I choose to sharpen my sensitivity,
To be more aware,
To realize that others too may be experiencing life's difficulties.
Like a magnificent whale drifting in the peaceful depths of the ocean,
My receptors are tuned in.
I choose to maintain warm,
Friendly and loving relationships with all I am with.
Like a mother swan with her signets,
I am tender with my touch,
And I allow the fragility of emotions to be caressed with love.
I choose to be flexible and adaptive when difficulties and obstructions arise.
Like a mountain stream,
I flow easily over and around the rocks and boulders in my path.
I choose to look for the good in my life and count my blessings for all that I have.
Like nature's choristers at dawn and dusk,
I give praise and thanks for the magic of life.
Each moment of each day,
I can choose.
I choose to smile as I move into the moments of my day.
Namaste.
