Hello and welcome to this beautiful morning.
It's a good morning,
A great morning to start anew.
My name is Juana and I'm very happy to be waking up with you.
Whether you're still in bed or doing this meditation from a chair or yoga mat,
Find yourself in a relaxed yet wakeful posture,
Hands facing down if you need more grounding or opened up if you want to receive.
Gently close your eyes and shut out the world for a bit as you settle into yourself for these next few precious minutes.
Yes,
I know,
There are people to get back to,
Places to be and things to do,
But those can all wait.
What's most important now is that you fill your own cup so that you can give of yourself without easily depleting.
So take this moment to thank yourself for being here,
For showing up for you.
Because if you don't do it,
Who else will?
Allow each inhale to awaken excitement within you for the possibilities that this day holds.
With each breath out,
Release any stagnant or old energy within you.
If you woke up with any heavy emotions,
Imagine yourself letting those go on your exhale.
The breath flows out as you silently affirm,
Out with the old.
And as the breath flows back in,
Affirm and in with the new.
Exhale,
Out with the old.
Inhale,
In with the new.
Out with the old.
And in with the new.
Out with the old.
And in with the new.
Breathing nice and easy,
A few more times on your own.
I invite you to imagine that you're turning to a new page in your book of life.
Today's date written at the very top.
Though it may seem just like any other calendar day,
How are you going to make it new?
Ask yourself,
How am I going to approach today with fresh eyes and gratitude in my heart?
What is it you want to write on this page?
Imagine today flowing in alignment with your heart's desires.
Envision the best possible outcome for your day.
Write it all down.
Fill in the blank.
Wouldn't it be nice if.
.
.
Write down whatever inspiration may come.
Let your imagination run wild.
Today,
Wouldn't it be nice if.
.
.
Now what is it you need more of today?
Would you like more courage to follow your heart's desires?
More creativity to bring into your job?
Or perhaps just more energy to fuel you?
Write that all down on your page too.
And when you're done,
Close the book,
Feeling gratitude for what lays ahead,
As if the blessings you seek have already happened.
Next,
I'd like you to envision the rising sun coming up over the horizon in your mind's eye.
And as it rises,
Let it light you up from head to toe with whatever it is you need.
Bathe in the shimmering golden light.
Feel it caressing your forehead and dancing across your eyelids,
Warming up your skin.
Sense the sun's warm rays on every inch of your body,
Revitalizing and healing you.
Receive exactly what you need from it.
And so it is.
Now,
With a deep sense of calm and contentment,
Softly open your eyes,
Welcoming in the world with an open heart.
Know that you are worthy of love,
Kindness,
And all the good that comes your way today.
Just let it in.
As always,
Let me know how your inward journey went,
And join me again tomorrow.
