Good morning,
My name is Kate.
I'm a creativity coach and mentor and I'm glad to be with you today.
This meditation is for anyone looking to have a slow,
Calm,
And focused start to the morning.
I will be alongside you to guide you as we begin this new day.
You have a lot you want to explore today.
Maybe something to create,
Something to learn,
Something to try.
We can often feel a lot of internal energy in the morning with what we want to tackle for the day.
So take this time to acknowledge this ambition and notice the excitement in welcoming a new day,
A new opportunity.
With all the eagerness you have to dive deep into your work,
Let's be intentional just for the next few minutes about slowing down and finding your footing,
Finding your place.
There is always a to-do list.
There are always priorities.
But for right now,
Come back to your breath knowing that this time is for you and all you need to do is be here now.
Allow your thoughts to come and go.
There is no need to capture them now.
Just let them move as they will.
Then start to tune into your breath.
Slowly breathing in and out.
This breath is your strength,
Your anchor point.
Come back to this breath whenever you need to.
If it feels good for you,
You can gently close your eyes,
Settle into your seat,
Allow your shoulders to drop and your jaw to relax.
Do whatever feels good here.
Things are so precious.
Though we experience a new morning every single day,
The delicacy of them never fades.
The sun rises slowly,
The birds begin to sing.
You may hear the humming of trees blowing in the wind.
You may sense a lightness all around you as the sounds of the world emerge into this new day.
What an honor it is to be a human on this beautiful planet.
You creative soul are here to make things,
To advocate for change,
To put your wisdom into your work.
You have a gift.
You are a gift.
Your ambition shines in the most beautiful ways.
Your continued journey through the depth of life,
Through the murky waters of an unpredictable and sometimes difficult journey,
Deserves time of reflection.
Honor your ability to capture your experiences and translate them into your artwork,
Into movement,
Into unique and beautiful manifestations.
You are doing great things.
Know whatever is to come today,
You have put effort and heart into your days.
Some days feel quite heavy and difficult to navigate.
Some days the time you have to create is limited or even nonexistent.
But as long as you keep showing up ready and willing,
You have done enough.
Again,
As long as you keep showing up ready and willing,
You have done enough.
You have done enough.
So whatever you accomplish in the hours ahead,
Know that there are no expectations.
There is no pressure.
You have done enough just by showing up.
Enjoy the freedom in knowing that whatever you make today is enough.
Just take a moment to breathe here.
Creative slowing down and humbling yourself in this morning space is subtle and powerful at the same time.
I encourage you to do it regularly so that your body,
Your mind and your eager ambitions can be aligned and prepared to move forward together throughout the day.
Let's take one slow breath together.
Breathe in joy.
Breathe out honor.
Do whatever feels good here.
If you are ready,
You can begin to blink your eyes open.
Or if you want to stay in this place for a while longer,
That is certainly okay too.
This is your time.
I will leave you with this.
May joy and honor be with you and in you this morning and throughout the day.
You my friend are ready for whatever is to come.
Now in lit tennis.
DM.
