Today I invite you to be open to your possibilities.
Sometimes life can feel like it's passing by each day like the one before.
Each day you do your best,
Show up,
Tick items off your to-do list,
And yet some of the most important things slip through the cracks.
Your good intentions get lost in the sea of life,
Keeping your goals and dreams seemingly out of reach.
You find yourself drained and burnt out,
And you wonder how you could feel this way when you're doing your best.
You are not alone.
This is a fast-paced world with many distractions where it's easy to forget what matters most to you.
What does matter most to you?
Is it your health,
Finances,
Relationships,
Your job,
Where you live,
Going on vacation?
As you consider this,
Find a comfortable seated position.
Feel your feet root into the earth below,
Feeling the earth's full support.
You can either lower your gaze or gently close your eyes.
Begin to observe your breath.
Take a long slow inhale through your nose and sigh it out of your mouth,
Letting go.
Again,
Take a long slow breath,
Sipping in slightly more air than before.
This time,
Inhale through your nostrils,
Feeling the air reach the back of your throat.
Hold your breath for a moment and gently release through your nostrils.
Again,
Breathe through your nostrils,
Hold,
Create space,
And gently release out through your nostrils.
Practice this breath on your own for the next 30 seconds.
See if you can make your breath smoother and longer with each inhale and exhale.
Allow tension to release from your body as you fill it with breath.
Now let go of intentional breathing and allow your natural rhythm.
In this state of relaxed awareness,
Visualize yourself standing alone on a beach.
You look out at the sea.
Underneath the water,
You know an entire world is living and unfolding,
Unseen to your eyes.
A sea of full potential.
Waves crash against the sand.
The cold water reaches your toes.
You feel the power of the ocean.
This power also lives inside you,
Moving and begging to be heard and seen.
You feel the energy fill every cell of your body.
The Sun warms your skin.
The ocean,
The sand,
And Sun work in harmony.
You feel a renewed energy.
Your heart is open.
Your mind at peace.
You walk along the beach.
You feel the sand squish between your toes as you walk.
Your footprints leave a trail of where you once were.
Up ahead,
You see a tide pool.
You make your way over to it.
You are curious about what life may be inside.
You sit down next to the pool on a rock.
The tide pool has crystal clear water.
You stare into the water,
Seeing your reflection.
Your face is beautiful and at peace.
Suddenly,
Your reflection is replaced with new images.
You see snapshots of your future self.
You understand that you have the power to create the images you see.
Getting excited about this newly found power,
You start to change the images.
You see the healthiest version of yourself.
You see yourself flourishing in your relationships,
Giving back to your community,
Thriving and learning new things.
On your dream vacation,
Living in a home you love,
Loving your job and everything it provides you.
You see yourself happy and fulfilled.
You can see the unseen.
It is there waiting for you to make it real.
You have the power to create the life of your dreams.
You get to choose how you spend your time.
You get to create your life every single day.
The images disappear and once again you see your reflection in the water.
As your reflection stares back at you,
Your heart's desire becomes clear.
You know what matters most to you.
You always have.
Take this moment to create an intention.
What would be one thing you would change today that aligns with what you really want in life?
Make sure to create it in the present tense as an I am statement.
Repeat your intention three times in your head with full sincerity and belief.
Take a long cleansing breath,
Breathing in through your nose and sigh it out through your mouth.
You are ready.
It is time to return to the here and now.
Settle back into your body in the here and now where your feet are firmly planted on the ground.
Let today be the day you listen to your inner voice and live in alignment with what matters most.
Let today be the day you commit to your values and your dreams.
Feel excitement for what is to come.
You are living the life your heart desires.
Namaste.
