Morning Blessing Gift Of A River

Morning Blessing Gifts awaken, stimulate and deepen meditation and spiritual practice. The meditations provide a friendly, comforting and accessible way to wake up and affirm the whole self. Each blessing has seven brief paragraphs that offer a welcome to the day, a silent meditation, affirmations of body, heart and soul, a blessing and a gift for each day. It begins and ends with a ring of a singing bowl.

Transcript

Here is a new day,

Stretching out in front of you like a broad river sweeping toward the sea,

And with the same momentum.

Carrying all before it,

This river of this day accepts all the past season's runoff,

Changes the landscape,

And deposits rich silt in new places,

Creating fertile soil.

Let stillness grow quickly,

Nourished by your body.

Breathe calmly rooted in place.

Sit here quietly.

Like the river,

Sweep all thought before you so that your mind is clean and you can see all the way to your inner horizon and beyond.

With the energy of your awareness,

Scan your body.

Be in touch with every part of yourself and thus bring yourself together.

Your toes and feet,

Your legs and waist,

Your chest and ribs,

Your shoulders and arms,

Your hands and fingers,

Your neck,

Head,

And face.

Next,

Inventory your feelings.

Welcome what you find as signs of life.

Wherever there is movement,

Amplify it and encourage it.

Be brave enough to ride the currents of your emotions downstream so they can join the ocean of expression.

And thus your spirit is free.

Nothing holds it back.

Nothing holds you back,

For you are spirit.

Can you give yourself this much freedom?

May you feel all the freedom that is yours today.

Your gift today is a river.
