Today we are going to focus on feeling peace in every hour of the day.
You can listen to this at any time and you may want to download it so it can be part of a ritual for you in the morning or evening or before doing some creative work.
You will hear a singing bowl between each reflection.
You can simply use this as a pause to go deeper into a state of peace or you could pause the audio at these points and write down what you'd like to remember for later.
Let's begin.
Vigil before dawn.
You wake,
Sudden heart pound,
The noise from the ground,
Perhaps a car passing too fast or the dream of your past and you drink water.
Check on your son or daughter or animal familiar.
Say a prayer for you all.
How quickly they grow.
How old you feel now.
The lines on your face at this hour are maps of roads you have passed or walked or crawled upon.
You lie back into bed.
Let sleep take your head.
You are peace.
You are blessed.
Be a humongous,
You you you you Dawn prayer In olden times they called this Lauds as in Laud Another workday or Laud who will help me clean this mess or Laud my aching back not now though Now it is just praise you feel the work the busyness the pain of the coming day You have learned to welcome them all like rain You no longer long to get away This is worth praise You are so strong you have lasted this long You have longer to go You are peace You are blessed you you you you Mid morning prayer Take your coffee or your tea and sit a minute You do not have to work so quickly Watch the B See how she pauses at each flower There are 60 long minutes in an hour Let your sweat dry Let your body enjoy the weather You last better when you take good care of yourself Take the book down from the shelf Read a minute Remember That love you had back then is in you still Be still You are peace You are blessed You You You You You you Midday prayer a Few beans a salad some oil salt Let your mouth be the leader Eat what feels right Just enough something light and then end with chocolate Not a lot a bite Feel it melting on your tongue life is sweet like this There is more to be enjoyed than there is to be done You are who you have become Let yourself taste it The end is not going to come The end is not going to come you will keep going through this day You are peace You are blessed You You You Evening prayer Light a lamp let your feet come up get a blanket Resist the news for once Sit in silence with your breath The day is almost over It is time to rest No more meetings not one more thing to rush to finish Life is not a race But there is a way to win it But there is a way to win it It is this Sit Think back on all you are That night That star How far you have come You are in your heart still young You are peace You are blessed You You You You Night prayer Praise the moon praise the stars give thanks for who you are You are a light in the darkness You are a mother to many You are the shepherd of the flock of your heart You always do your duty This is your time to rest This is your time to feel the tip of your toes Your skin your legs and belly Your arms and hands and head All of you blessed Rest you are alive you are still growing you are peace you are blessed You are blessed You are the shepherd of the flock of your heart You are the shepherd of the flock of your heart You are the shepherd of the flock of your heart You are the shepherd of the flock of your heart You are the shepherd of the flock of your heart You You You You
