You are special and unique! Without you in this world, there would be a void! My dear friend, Pierre Bensusan, has permitted me to use his track called ‘Sentimentales Pyromaniaques’ from the album 'Altiplanos'.

Let's begin our day with a little bit of happy talk and meditation in this short yet impactful podcast designed to infuse a little bit of positivity into each moment of every day.

Let's get in the flow.

So I want to talk about when I open myself up and my chakras in the morning.

Before I do this,

Before I do any spiritual work,

I open myself up in my chakras.

I always call in Archangel Michael for protection.

I also call in Archangel Raphael for healing.

So yesterday I was doing this and for some reason I thought to myself,

Wow,

Each of the archangels has a specific sort of role to play in the universe.

Archangel Michael is protection,

Archangel Raphael is healing.

Then I started thinking about people.

I started thinking about humans and the role that we play in the world,

In our world,

Good and bad.

Good and bad.

We all have a role to play in the universe.

I don't know why,

But this was sort of an aha moment for me.

In the spiritual world,

You can be a healer,

You can be a medium,

A psychic,

A reiki master,

An empath,

All sorts of different things,

You know,

Yogi,

Yoga teacher,

And you have that title.

That's,

You know,

Who you are.

And the list goes on,

Of course,

Right?

In the world then,

We also,

We have our own skill sets and bring to the table our own personal strengths,

Whether that's to be outspoken or timid,

Or you could be a doer,

Or you could be an executive,

Or you could be a utility worker,

Or you could be a grocery store clerk.

We all fit in the universe with our unique selves.

And so today,

I'm here to tell you that you are special.

That's the bottom line.

You are unique,

And you bring your own individual gifts to your world,

As well as the planet.

And here's another bombshell.

Without you,

There would be a void.

Oh my gosh,

I just had a thought of the Christmas movie.

It's a wonderful life.

And George Bailey,

It's one of my favorite movies of all time,

George Bailey got the opportunity to see what life would be like without him in it.

What you know,

What the town would be like if you haven't seen it.

It's extraordinary because it makes you realize that we all touch so many lives throughout our day.

Even if it's just a simple smile or something,

You know,

Because you never know if somebody is,

I hate to say it this way,

But this is what Spirit's kind of giving me this example.

Somebody is having a really hard time and they're like considering crossing themselves over and just your smile to somebody,

Oh I'm getting emotional,

Just your smile to that person might change the path.

You don't know,

Right?

We all have our uniqueness in the world.

I love that thought.

We are all in this together then if you take it even further,

We're all in this together.

And then I keep thinking about,

Because you know this is how I roll,

I was thinking about the Sly and the Family Stone song.

Keeps coming in my head as well,

Right?

It's thank you for letting me be myself.

Let's live like this today.

Let's live like this today.

Let's thank the universe for our uniqueness and embrace our tiny little place in the world.

You are the universe.

See and that's another important thing.

Like I say,

We're all here to touch each other.

You are so special.

You are so special.

It's extraordinary.

All right,

So we're going to meditate on this surprise,

Surprise.

So let's get ourselves comfortable.

Sit back,

Relax,

Enjoy the ride.

Close your eyes when it feels correct for you.

Let's take a deep breath in.

Feeling up your lungs and release.

Gorgeous.

It's a gorgeous first breath.

And as we consider that we are special,

Each and every individual one of us is special.

Our mantra for today.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

If you know the song,

Thank you for letting me be myself again.

So yeah,

First thing in the morning.

So that is our mantra for today.

And you know what?

It's not just going to be these few minutes of meditation.

Let's take that to our day.

Let's take that to everyone we meet today.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

So we're going to sit in the stillness for just a few minutes.

I will keep the time and let's begin.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

And let's begin.

Let's do it.

Like the water in the water ascent stripped me from being alive.

Thank you for letting me be myself.

Let's start bringing our awareness back to our bodies.

Let's take a nice deep breath in,

Breathing in our own uniqueness into our entire body.

Take that breath and release.

Perfect.

Whenever you feel comfortable you can open your eyes.

Namaste.
