Take a nice,
Deep,
Nourishing breath in through your nose and let it out slowly through your nose or your mouth.
This is your moment to reset into gratitude,
To invite a warm glow of appreciation into your heart and mind.
Bring to mind one small thing you're grateful for today,
Something simple,
Maybe the warmth of sunlight or even the taste of your morning coffee.
While you're doing that,
Feel that little spark of warmth in your chest as you notice it and let it grow softly like a gentle golden light spreading from your heart across your shoulders,
Down your arms,
And into your hands.
Now with each inhale,
Draw in more of this grateful feeling,
Filling your body with quiet joy.
And with each exhale,
Release any heaviness,
Any lack or not enough.
Notice another thing that you're grateful for,
Perhaps a person or your own strength or kindness.
Feel that gratefulness with your whole heart.
Allow that glow to brighten,
Warming your face,
Softening your forehead,
Relaxing your jaw.
Just allow it.
Don't force it.
Know that you are worthy of gratitude.
You are worthy of joy right now,
Exactly where you are.
Take one more gentle breath in,
Filling with gratitude and light.
And then exhale a long,
Easy exhale,
Letting the glow of gratitude settle deep inside you.
Carry this warmth with you today and return to it whenever you need a quick lift.
When you're ready,
Take one final deep breath in,
Bringing in fresh appreciation.
And exhale slowly.
Open your eyes whenever it feels right.
And have a beautiful,
Grateful day.
