Welcome.
Let's have a beautiful start to this brand new day.
Beginning from right where we are.
Before the day begins to ask anything of you.
Give yourself these few minutes.
There's nothing to accomplish.
Nothing to fix.
Just a beautiful moment to begin again.
Gently close your eyes or you may keep them open slightly.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently breathe out.
Again.
Breathe in slowly.
And exhale completely.
Notice how you feel right now.
And without needing to change anything.
Simply allow yourself to be here.
Now bring a gentle smile to your face.
Let the corners of your mouth lift just a little.
Notice.
How something as simple as a smile can begin to change the way you feel.
Take another deep breath in.
As you breathe out,
Let go of any tension you don't want to carry until today.
Let go of yesterday.
Let go of what didn't go as planned.
This morning is new and you get to choose how you want to enter it.
Now place your hand gently over your heart.
Feel your breath moving in and out.
And silently say these affirmations to yourself.
Today is a new beginning.
I choose peace.
I choose joy.
I am open to the goodness of today.
Let those words settle inside you.
You don't need to know exactly what today will bring.
You only need to be open to the possibilities of today.
Something as simple as a kind conversation,
A smile,
A beautiful moment.
Perhaps something completely unexpected.
Smile.
Take a deep breath in and imagine breathing in lightness.
Hope and possibility.
And breathe out worry,
Pressure,
Expectations.
Now imagine yourself moving through your day with a little more ease.
Take a few normal breaths.
In and out.
In and out.
You don't have to have everything figured out.
You can pause,
You can breathe.
You can choose your response.
And come back to this feeling whenever you need it.
One more beautiful breath in and out.
Deep in and out.
Now,
Before you open your eyes,
Make one simple intention for today.
Maybe it is,
I will be present.
Maybe I will be kind to myself.
Choose your own.
And now bring that intention with you.
Feel your breath.
And when you are ready.
.
.
Gently open your eyes.
The day is waiting for you.
It's going to be a beautiful one.
And whenever you need a little more peace,
Happiness or fresh start.
Feel free to come back to this meditation as many times as you need.
From my heart to yours.
Have a wonderful day.
