Welcome to this morning incense ritual where we will jot down and bring awareness to our to-do list for today. This morning is not about stillness and peace, But rather allowing ourselves to get clear about what we want to accomplish and allowing our creative minds to inform us of where we should invest our energy and focus today. To get started, I invite you to have either a pen and paper, Diary, Or your calendar on your phone or laptop with you. And before you light your incense, I invite you to take five deep conscious breaths, Allowing you to ground into your body and centering your attention into this moment of ritual. As you light your incense, Thank it for supporting this morning practice. Take a moment to watch the smoke rise and allow the fragrance to bless you and your home this morning. We will begin to create our to-do list shortly, But first I want to invite you into a more mindful state of being. We do not write these things down, Feeling stressed or rushed. Rather, There is a clarity, An eagerness to do, Create, Accomplish today. We are creative beings and there is an innate drive within us to do things, To make every moment count, To give life meaning, And to be of service to humanity in some way. We get to work on projects, Do tasks, Converse with people, Perhaps visit different locations, Care for our family. So when we can take a moment to actually zoom out, There may be a lot of moving parts in our daily life, So much to experience, Learn and grow from. We may truly enjoy some of these things and others perhaps not so much, But we can allow these shifts in the emotional spectrum and allow our excitement to waver, Which ultimately brings us more clarity around what is in alignment with us, Or how we want to live our life moving forward. So as you write your to-do list now, I encourage you to approach it with some optimism and some love. Perhaps thinking, I get to do this today, Or how can I bring more love into this task? Through this I am helping and being of service. I get to learn, Grow and develop my skills through this, For example. So with each thing you write down on your to-do list today, Elevate it, Act like you would happily choose to do this, Because what you can gain or give. Find the silver lining in whatever it may be, Even if it's not something you are totally overly excited about. We get to choose the energy and state of consciousness we bring into anything. So for your own wellbeing and joy today, Choose to see from a high perspective, No matter how small or big you deem the task to be. I'll give you around 5 minutes here to do this. Great job! If you feel complete with your to-do list and you are feeling eager to progress into your day, Feel free to enjoy the fragrant smoke coming from your incense stick as you carry on with the rest of your morning routine. Bring this newfound state of being into your day, Remembering the power that you have to shape and respond to your day in any given moment.
