Transcript
Slowly bring yourself into being present to this practice.
Start checking in with the body.
Become aware of how the body is feeling where we're resting at this moment.
Are there any areas of the body that need to shift to become more comfortable?
Take a deep breath in and breathe into these areas of the body to become more relaxed.
Wiggle your toes and fingers to help them settle into the practice.
Are there any other places in the body that can be adjusted to become more relaxed?
Take a deep breath in.
Focus into the areas of the body that still need attention.
Stay present.
Relax the forehead.
Relax the jaw.
Take another breath in and release.
Next let's become aware of the connection points of the body and where you're seated or lying down.
Ideally you should sit up straight for this practice,
But if the practice in this moment is better for you lying down,
That's okay too.
Become aware of the connection points beneath your feet,
Where you're seated,
Where your legs are touching the surface beneath you,
The surface behind you.
Allow your body to rest into these connection points and to receive this sense of groundedness that is there.
Take a deep breath in and focus into the groundedness.
Stay present.
Now bring your attention to how the mind is feeling as you settle into this practice.
Get present and settle the mind.
Start getting the mind open to being quiet,
Receptive,
Present.
Take a deep breath in to set the intention of having a clear and present mind.
Stay present.
Now bring your heart attention to how the heart is feeling as you settle into this practice.
Get present on opening your heart to receiving.
Take a deep breath in to set the intention of having an open heart.
Stay present.
Now bring your attention to the inner body.
Get present to opening the inner body,
To being calm,
Secure,
And receptive.
Take a deep breath and set the intention of having a settled and relaxed inner body.
Stay present.
Remember whatever is here is here in this moment.
We just want to become aware and allow ourselves to become present and open to receiving.
Take a deep breath and draw the energy up from the base of your spine all the way up to the top of your head.
Hold your breath and hold the energy there at the top of your head and release.
Again,
Take a deep breath and draw the energy up from the base of your spine all the way to the top of your head.
Hold your breath and hold that energy there at the top of your head and release.
Two more times this time.
Pull in the abdomen and pull the energy up from the base of your spine up to the top of your head.
Hold your abdomen in and hold that energy up above the top of your head.
Exhale and release.
Stay present.
Last time,
Take another deep breath in,
Pulling in the abdomen and pulling the energy up from the base of your spine up over to the top of your head.
Hold it above the top of your head.
Exhale to release.
Now continue to take a few more natural but deep breaths on each exhalation.
Concentrate on the intention you want to set for your practice.
Start with an I am statement.
I am focused.
I am present.
I am full of light.
I am calm.
I am free.
I am open to receiving.
I am open to joy.
I am grateful.
I am present.
I am so grateful that I know.
I am focused.
I am present.
I am full of light.
I am free.
I am calm.
I am open to receiving.
I am grateful.
I am focused.
I am present.

I am calm.
I am free.
I am open to receiving.
I am open to joy.
I am grateful.
I am present.
I am full of light.
I am filled with gratitude.
Stay present.
Now shift the awareness away from the body and the self and focus in on the space around the body.
Feel into the surrounding space that is here with you.
Become aware of the space that is in front of you,
To the left of you,
To the right of you,
Behind you,
And above you.
Feel the energy that is surrounding you in the space.
Stay present.
Continue to stay aware of the space and watch the energy expand into more of the space around you.
Once again,
Become aware of the space to the right side of your body.
How far can you extend out into that space?
Maintain a natural easy breath.
Stay present and feel the energy of the space to the right side of your body.
Now become aware of the space that is to the left side of your body.
How far can you extend out into that space?
Maintain a natural easy breath and stay present.
Feel the energy out to the left side.
Feel it radiating against you.
Now become aware of the space to the back of your body.
How far can you extend that energy out into the space behind you?
Stay present.
Maintain a natural easy breath.
Feel the energy in the space behind you.
Next become aware of the space out in front of you.
How far can you extend out into that space in front of you and feel the energy radiating out into the space in front of you?
Maintain a natural and easy breath as you feel the energy of that space.
Stay present.
Now become aware of the space above you.
When you're feeling the space above you,
Stretch as far as you can imagine your being lifting up into that space.
Appreciate that limitless possibility of the space above you.
Maintain a natural and easy breath and feel the energy radiating out.
Stay present.
Take a moment to sense the entire space around you.
Extend your energy out as far as you can away from you.
Stay present.
Imagine a bright radiating light extending from your entire body out into the space around.
Stay present.
Now bring your awareness back to your breathing.
Inhale,
Exhale.
And slowly from one to ten.
Stay present.
Start to bring your awareness back to the present.
Acknowledge yourself for taking this time to become centered.
Take another moment to feel deep gratitude for the things that are right.
Think about all the things that you were grateful for in this present moment.
Feel the gratitude of blessings washing over you and the joy of feeling that gratitude.
I am healthy.
I am focused.
I am full of light.
I am calm.
I am free.
I am present.
I am open to receiving.
I am grateful.
I am grateful.
I am joyful.
Extend that gratitude and joy to your inner spirit.
Thank your inner spirit for watching over you,
Making sure that everything always works out in your favor.
Take this feeling of gratitude and love with you as you complete this practice.
Namaste.
