Why do we feel that we'd never have enough time?

Why is it that no matter how many technological advances there are,

We can't find time to just be us?

To just be.

In a world that continuously asks for more,

What can you do to push back?

What can you do to fight for you?

In today's meditation,

Let's explore carving out just a few minutes for you.

Just a few minutes to relax,

To be still,

To be calm.

Begin seated.

Let's take a deep breath together.

Let it out.

Let's take another deep breath in together.

Let it out.

In the silence,

What comes to mind?

What is a soothing visualization for you?

Might it be imagining that you're outside and there's a perfect blue sky,

The temperature is just right for you,

And you're watching the water in a beautiful lake.

You see the water so tranquil.

It moves.

It ebbs and flows.

It's calm.

In this moment,

You don't need to think about anything else.

You just need to be.

Be calm like the water.

Allow yourself to be soothed.

Take another deep breath in.

Let it go.

Please repeat after me.

I am calm in this very moment.

I am calm in this very moment.

I am calm in this very moment.

Take as much time as you need.

Maybe you feel ready to re-engage.

Maybe you need another few minutes.

But take the time wishing you happiness.
