Transcript

Begin this meditation in a comfortable position,

Sitting or laying down.

As the golden light of morning gently enters your space,

Close your eyes,

Place one hand over your heart,

And take a deep breath in,

Then release it slowly.

Let yourself soften into this moment.

Take another deep breath,

Feeling the air flow gently into your body,

Like the first light of the sun touching the earth.

This breath is your renewal,

A gift,

A sacred beginning.

As you exhale,

Feel any tension melt away.

You are safe.

You are held in the arms of life itself.

Bring your awareness to your heart.

Imagine it glowing softly,

Radiating warmth,

Pulsing with the rhythm of life.

Feel the miracle of being alive in this moment.

You are breathing,

Your heart is beating.

Life moves through you like a gentle river,

Steady and true.

Take a moment to whisper a quiet thank you.

Thank you for this body,

This breath,

This chance to begin again.

Imagine golden sunlight gently resting upon your skin,

Filling you with warmth.

This light carries a message.

You are loved.

You are enough.

You are a beautiful part of this world.

Let these words settle into your being.

Let them nourish your soul.

There is nothing you need to prove,

Nothing you need to choose,

Nothing you need to chase.

Just this moment.

Just the quiet gift of existing.

Now,

Place both hands over your heart and take another deep breath.

Let gratitude well up inside you.

If tears come,

Let them.

These are tears of recognition.

Your soul remembers the beauty of being alive.

Set an intention for your day.

It can be as simple as,

Today,

I choose peace.

Today,

I will notice the little joys.

Today,

I will be kind to myself.

Breathe this intention deep into your being.

As you gently bring your awareness back to the present,

Feel your body,

The surface beneath you,

The air around you.

Wiggle your fingers and toes.

Slowly open your eyes when you're ready.

Carry this warmth with you.

Let it guide your steps.

Soften your thoughts and remind you that this day,

This life,

Is a gift.

You are loved.

You are held.

You are light.
