Good morning,
I'm Heidi,
And ready to start this day with you.
In the mornings,
I enjoy the smell of my cup of coffee,
Looking outside,
Admiring the beauty,
The stillness,
The energy of the moment.
And I realize morning is a gateway,
A chance to pause and create.
As energy changes and moves while we sleep,
It resets,
And that means every morning is new.
It's a new day,
A new energy,
And a new you.
Mornings are a gateway to connect with the new you,
Through your body,
Mind,
And spirit,
Creating for this new day ahead.
As you start to settle in,
Rest in your eyes,
And check in with your breath,
And start feeling into your body as it touches the seat,
Your feet solid on the ground,
Your body is connected to this earth,
Imagine a grounding cord from the base of your spine,
Deep down into Mother Earth,
Grounding you,
Anchoring you,
Holding you.
As you make this grounding cord wider and wider,
It feels stable,
Secure,
And firmly here.
And moving your awareness upwards to your heart center,
Sit here with yourself.
Fill yourself with compassion,
Kindness,
And love.
Embracing three things you're grateful for right now.
Maybe it's the smell of coffee or tea that softens your body like a loved one's hug,
Or the cozy blanket that keeps you warm,
Or the squirrel outside your window prancing with pure joy in the moment.
Pause,
And let what you're grateful for fill you up,
Feeling the lightness and the expandedness.
And now moving your awareness upwards to your mind's eye,
Imagine a morning sunrise here in your third eye.
Place into the sun any energies you want to experience in your day.
Maybe it's confidence or peace,
Joy,
Creativity,
Whatever you need today.
Observing the sun as it gets bigger and bigger as you fill it in with whatever you need.
And as the sun rises,
It begins to beam these qualities out into your day.
Watch as these rays beam into the rooms,
The buildings,
The people,
The conversations of today,
This energy radiating outward,
Beaming,
Radiating,
Illuminating.
It's beautiful.
Using this morning as a gateway to create from your body,
Your mind,
And spirit.
This is how you want to move forward.
You can't control external demands,
But you can control the energy you want to illuminate,
No matter what.
This is the difference between being lived by your day and living your day.
Take a deep breath,
Start to wiggle your fingers and toes.
When you're ready,
You can open your eyes.
I thank you for joining me today.
You're welcome to return to this meditation tomorrow,
Radiating your energy from the inside out,
Creating your day before anyone else does.
Have a blessed day.
