Hello,
This is Carrie Logan at Empowered Within.
Find that quiet place where you can relax and go within.
Make sure you're comfortable.
And then in your own time,
You can close your eyes.
And feel the breath slowly begin to move in and out of your body.
Breathing in deeply and rhythmically.
Slowing down the breath.
Flowing the mind down.
And feeling how good it can be when we breathe in deeply and easily.
Allowing ourselves to just softly settle within.
A smooth,
Continuous pattern of breathing.
And continue this pattern of smooth,
Rhythmic breathing as I speak to you.
For a peace begins with you.
And if you want to live in a peaceful world,
Then it's up to you to make sure you are a peaceful person inside and out.
So no matter how others might behave,
Think or speak,
You have the choice to keep peace in your heart.
You can declare peace even in the midst of chaos or turmoil.
For a peace begins with you.
And you can surround all difficult situations with peace and love.
You can embody the essence of peace and love.
And you can send thoughts of peace to all the troubled parts of your inner and outer world.
You can now see life in a new,
Positive way.
For you know and understand,
Peace begins with your own thoughts and emotions.
And you do have the ability to connect with like-minded,
Peaceful,
Thinking people.
And together we can bring peace to our own world.
So for now,
Peace begins with you.
And you choose a peaceful way of living,
Of being and existing.
And so see how you feel right now.
Do you feel there are some outside influences?
Or someone else's negativity bringing you down?
If so,
Get a sense how you can detach yourself from it.
As if removing etheric cable cords from you.
For peace begins with you.
And then imagine yourself surrounded by a protective shield of light.
Meaning safety and comfort within your shield.
So as you see,
Hear and feel those outside influences.
They will now bounce right back from where it came.
And you can feel peaceful here.
Calm and relaxed.
Letting those outside influences to no longer affect you.
So you can still hear,
See,
Understand and rationalize.
And no longer let those negatives affect you at all.
Peace begins with you.
And all you have to do is create it first in your mind and body.
With your thoughts and feelings.
Knowing I am peace.
And peace begins with me.
And so as you go throughout your day,
If any of those negative influences from the outside seem to create disharmony within you.
Remember your shield.
Simply think to yourself,
My shield or my bubble.
And in a flash it will be there.
Around you.
Beating you.
Because peace begins with you.
And so my friend,
You can stay here for a moment and feel that essence of peace within you.
Feeling that sense of tranquility and calmness.
For you are peace.
And peace is within you.
And it is so.
