Morning Blessing Gifts awaken, stimulate and deepen meditation and spiritual practice. In the tradition of Robert Frost and Wendell Berry, poetic images and personal experiences of New England nature, the birds, animals, woods, and beaches of coastal Maine, awakens listeners to begin their day nurtured and encouraged to be themselves, joined with like-minded souls. This meditation provides 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. Begins and ends with a ring of a singing bowl.

Hello.

After a long night,

Or a short night,

Sleep or not,

The day is here.

Whether there will be rain and wind or sun and blue sky,

The day is upon us.

The earth,

Which seems so solid beneath our feet,

Turns through space offering another day.

Recently,

Hiking in the Western Hills,

When I paused to rest,

I stopped the gentle crunch of leaves underneath my feet.

Silence took over.

Let silence advance and surround you.

Let silence fall around you like colorful leaves fluttering down from the trees overhead.

Feel the silence with your physical self,

Letting the quiet touch and penetrate your skin down to your bone and marrow.

As you scan and awaken your body down from your head to your feet,

Give your physical being the energy of awareness.

Place your awareness into your emotions,

Whatever it is that you feel right now.

Give yourself permission to really feel it and give the feeling and expression a descriptive word,

A sound.

In the same way,

Whatever your soul is right now can come forth and manifest.

Here is a chance for your soul,

As ancient as it may be,

To birth itself anew.

Just as the earth turns and the leaves fall,

Your soul moves through its seasons intact and wants only acknowledgement.

Move into this day then with your parts joined,

Whole.

Remember who you are,

Part of the patterns and seasons.

Join the ebb and flow of the hours and minutes of this day.

Your gift today is change.

Meet your Teacher
