Transcript

Welcome to this 3 minute meditation session.

Let's sit comfortably together with a straight back and relaxed shoulders.

Feel free to close your eyes if you wish,

Otherwise you can soften your gaze.

Let's take a few cleansing breaths together.

Now let a smile slowly make its way upon your face,

Even making a toothy grin.

You are a good,

Wonderful person.

You are special.

You are loved.

Keep the smile upon your face,

Shining out a light into the world.

Notice how you feel in this moment.

Now take a breath and let the smile gently disappear.

Let your face go into neutral,

Relaxed,

Easy position.

You are a good,

Special,

Beautiful person.

You are wonderful.

You are loved.

Notice how you feel in this particular moment.

Now gently bring the smile back to your face.

Lift up the corners of your lips.

Let this glow shine out to the world.

You are an extraordinary person.

You are inspiring.

You are loved.

Take a moment to observe how you feel with the smile upon your face,

Hearing these words of love and encouragement.

Now let's take a couple cleansing breaths together as we make our way toward the end of this session.

And now feel free to open your eyes or adjust your gaze.

I wish you joy and tranquility in the rest of your day.

Thank you for joining me.

Be well.
