Welcome,

My friend.

Let's begin by gently rubbing your palms together,

Feeling the subtle warmth build with each circular motion.

When you feel that warmth,

Place your hands over your heart space.

Allow this gentle pressure to ground you,

To remind you that you are here.

You are safe.

You are present.

Take a slow breath in through your nose,

Letting the air expand softly in your belly,

And exhale through your mouth,

Releasing any tension.

Feel that warmth anchoring you in this moment.

Now bring your mind to a moment in the past week where you took action that truly reflected your values,

A time when you felt more energy when it was completed than when you began.

Where were you?

What choice did you make?

How did it feel to see your beliefs come alive through your behavior?

Did you feel proud,

Peaceful,

Empowered?

Let yourself relive the details.

Who was there?

What was said?

How did you show up?

Which behaviors in the past week best exemplify your values?

Allow those moments to shine brightly in your mind,

Like gentle reminders of who you are at the core.

And now with this wisdom,

Look forward.

How might you continue to bring these values into action today?

Feel the power of those words.

Let them settle deeply in your body,

Reminding you of your truth.

My behaviors are my values in action.

Take one final nourishing breath in,

Hold it gently at the top,

And exhale,

Softening your shoulders.

When you're ready,

Gently open your eyes,

Carrying this steady alignment of values and action with you into the rest of your day.

You are what you do,

And you are enough.

You got this.
