Take a soft breath in.
Allow yourself to arrive to a practice this morning.
Connect to your breath.
Witness the ebbs and flows of your breath moving through you.
Feeling your bum on the ground or on the chair that you're seated on.
Feeling your body in the space.
Allowing the mind to draw lines around your body.
To anchor yourself into the body that you're occupying.
To recognizing the boundaries between you and the world.
And as you're embodying this earthy suit,
In your imagination,
Take yourself to your favorite place in nature.
Allow your feet to land deeply on the soils,
On the sands,
On the rocks,
Wherever you're going.
Allow yourself to stand tall in your imagination.
Feeling the sun on your skin.
Breathing in the fresh air in nature.
Hearing the sounds of the birds chirping,
The animals around you,
The water flowing.
As you're taking all of this in,
Put your hands on your heart.
Connect to yourself.
In this moment,
Call upon your inner child.
Any age.
And call upon your higher self.
Allow both of them to be with you.
Present.
Present.
As you're beginning this new day,
Check in with your inner child.
What do they need?
What do they need for this day to be the way that feels nourishing for them?
And check in with your higher self.
As you're starting this new day,
Where do they call you forward?
Who do they ask you to be?
And taking this moment to pray into your day.
May in this day,
You have the courage to be exactly who you meant to be in this world.
May in this day,
You show up like you matter.
You show up from the place of your enoughness.
From the place of your presence matter in this world.
Your work matter in this world.
May today,
You walk on this earth gently,
Lovingly,
Fully.
May on this day,
May on this day,
You have the courage to express yourself fully.
Allow your creative self to fully be expressed bravely.
May on this day,
You remember to have reverence for life,
Yet remembering not to take life too seriously.
May on this day,
You be brave enough to take pleasure in every moment as they come.
