Good morning,

Dear one.

Mornings are magical because they provide us with the opportunity to begin anew.

As we start this morning together,

Let's take a few moments to release what lies behind us.

The only moment that matters is the present one.

You can release the past and still take the lessons you have learned with you into this new day.

You can choose to view all your memories,

Whether pleasant or not,

As contributing to your accumulating wisdom.

It is safe to release any thoughts or feelings that may be nagging at the back of your mind without losing any of the wisdom that you have gained from your past experiences.

Now let's release what has been so that we can begin this beautiful day with fresh new energy.

We will be taking three deep breaths together.

When you exhale,

I would like you to sigh out your breath as loud as you want.

While we breathe,

Visualize any thoughts or feelings that you need to let go of,

Leaving your body with your breath.

Take a deep breath in and sigh it out.

Another deep breath in and sigh out your breath.

And a last slow breath in and release your breath with a sigh.

Yesterday is only a memory.

You can choose how and if events from yesterday affect you.

You get to choose your words and actions in each new moment.

Setting an intention for your day will help you to choose the best words and actions for yourself as you move from moment to moment through your day.

An intention doesn't have to be overwhelming.

It can be a small goal that you set for yourself.

You can set an intention about how you would like to feel or how you would like to speak or act.

We will now spend a few quiet moments together to help you set your intention for your day.

If you like to,

You can close your eyes.

Breathe slowly and allow your intention for this day to become clear to you.

If your mind feels very busy or overwhelmed with thoughts about the day ahead,

Just try to connect with your heart.

Feel the intention that is right for you today in your heart.

If you like,

You can write your intention down.

Remember to check in with your intention throughout your day to help you remain true to your commitment to yourself for this day.

May the rest of your day be blessed and filled with the magic that you have created for yourself this morning.
