Transcript

Sometimes you wake up and the weight of the world is already pressing down on you before you even take your first breath.

Your body feels heavy.

Your mind is racing.

You're already dreading the day ahead even before you've taken the covers off.

And that's okay.

It's perfectly normal to have those days.

The days when just the thought of facing the world makes you want to hide,

Makes you wish you could just freeze time and not have to deal with any of it.

This journey is here for you on those mornings.

Those mornings when you wake up and can't face what's ahead.

When you're overwhelmed by life,

By responsibilities,

By emotions you don't know what to do with.

I'm here to hold you in those moments.

I'm here to help you shift something inside of you.

So when you walk back into your day,

You're not just surviving it.

You're ready to really live it.

So we begin simply.

We begin with your breath.

All you need to do is focus on your breath.

Using it to connect more powerfully with yourself.

Because the truth is these mornings when you wake up and the day already feels too heavy.

It's almost always because you started the day in your head.

Thoughts of the past,

Fear of the future,

The endless list of things you need to do,

All piling on before you've even had a sip of water.

But right now with me,

You get to leave all of that behind.

Right now we go somewhere deeper.

Away from all of that.

Sink down into your heart space now.

And start breathing from there.

Feel your stomach rise as you inhale.

Feel your ribs soften as you exhale.

Let your mind just go quiet for a little while.

Place every drop of your attention on your breath.

Long,

Slow,

Deep breaths in through your nose.

And then let them out through your mouth with a long,

Delicious sigh.

Each sigh is a release.

Each sigh is a door opening inside you.

Each sigh is like setting down a heavy bag you didn't even realize you were carrying.

Breathe in the anxiety lurking inside you.

And just sigh it all out.

Breathe in the pressure to hold everything together.

And sigh it all out.

Breathe in the worry about what the day might bring.

And sigh it all out.

Breathe in the to-do lists stacked on top of you.

And sigh them all out of you.

Breathe in other people's expectations of you.

Breathe in the constant doing for everybody else.

And sigh it all out of you now.

With every inhale,

You gather up all the discomfort in your body.

And with every exhale,

You release it.

And as a consequence,

Your nervous system softens,

Relaxes,

And feels completely safe.

Your breath becomes a bridge carrying you back home to yourself.

And now that you're here,

Now that you're breathing with yourself,

I want to tell you something very,

Very important.

Something so important that if you're willing to believe what I'm about to say,

It will make these difficult days become less and less and less.

Here's the truth.

You can change the whole trajectory of your day just by changing your point of view.

One tiny choice.

A single shift in your perspective can alter the entire direction of the next 24 hours.

And it gets even better than that.

Choosing to change the thought process you're having right now isn't just how you change your day.

It's how you change your whole entire life.

It's how you change everything.

It's a game changer.

So I'm asking you to come on a journey with me.

A journey inside yourself.

Because right now,

You do have a choice.

You can stay in the heaviness you woke up with,

Or you can step into something completely different.

And if you're here now listening to my voice,

I already know which choice you're ready to make.

Instead of fear,

Anxiety and overwhelm,

You're going to leave this journey feeling ready.

Feeling grounded.

Feeling connected to yourself and maybe even a little excited about what's waiting for you.

Because here's some more truth.

There is magic waiting for you.

There always is.

It might only be a few minutes ahead or a few hours ahead,

But I promise you it's there.

The problem is you forget to look for it.

You tend to focus on what's not working.

What feels too much.

The latest drama.

The crap.

Focusing on what you don't want to do.

On the arguments you had yesterday.

On the doom and gloom that's going on in the world.

The headlines,

The politics,

The war.

Of course you're feeling overwhelmed.

Anyone would.

So right now I'm asking you to do something you might not have done in a very long time,

Or maybe you've never done it.

I'm asking you to focus fully on yourself.

Because you spend so much of your life looking outward.

Looking for answers.

Looking for distractions.

Looking for something to hold onto.

But right now I just really want you to stop looking out and start being inside yourself.

So if your eyes aren't closed then I invite you to close them now.

And let your imagination take over.

I want you to find yourself standing in the middle of an empty room.

There's absolutely nothing in this room.

And everything is grey.

The walls are dark grey.

The ceiling is dark grey.

The floor is dark grey.

There are no windows.

The air feels heavy.

It makes you uncomfortable like you don't want to be there.

This,

This is how you started your day.

This room is what it feels like when you wake up in dread and overwhelm.

It's like you get stuck in a prison of grey and you can't get out.

But you can get out.

And I'm going to show you how.

Because you are so much more powerful than you know.

You constantly underestimate yourself and the power that lives within you that can do absolutely anything.

There is a power living inside you.

The same power that breathes wind through the trees.

The same power that creates storms across oceans and lights up the stars.

Everything in life is energy.

But you've forgotten that.

You've forgotten that you're pure energy.

And instead you believe you're only your body.

But you are so much more than just the physical skin you wear.

You are pure life force.

You are connected to everything.

Which means you're as powerful as God because God is part of you.

The universe is part of you.

And that means you can turn your day technicolour simply by believing it.

So I'd like you to see your power now.

Feel it in the centre of your chest.

A small glowing point of light.

White.

Pure.

Powerful.

The tiniest flame just waiting for you to notice it.

So notice it now.

Take a deep breath and as you do see this light in the centre of your chest grow even brighter.

Take another deep breath and watch how the light starts to expand.

Another deep breath.

The light grows spilling into the whole of your chest,

Your stomach,

Your legs,

Your feet.

Your shoulders,

Your arms,

Your hands,

Your face,

The whole of your head.

Feel how your whole body is now lit from within.

And with your next deep breath on your exhale release your light.

Let that light burst out of you like the sun cracking open a brand new day.

The light beams out of you,

Flooding the walls,

The floor and the ceiling,

Washing away every trace of grey.

Until the room is nothing but white.

A clean,

Fresh canvas.

A brand new day.

And then something magical happens.

Floating in front of you appears a shimmering palette of paints.

Every colour you've ever seen and colours you never even knew existed are swirling around each other like liquid rainbows.

This is the paint palette of dreams.

It lives in your imagination and it belongs to you.

It's waiting for you to choose something different.

To paint your day a different colour.

All colours.

Every colour.

You get to choose how you paint this day.

There's no right way.

There's only your way.

There's only the way you choose.

It's up to you.

So please pick up the paintbrush that's on the palette and dip it into the colour that calls to you first.

Maybe it's a red.

The colour of love.

Paint hearts,

Big ones,

Small ones.

Cover the walls with them.

Maybe you choose green,

The colour of abundance.

Draw dollar signs.

Paint trees heavy with fruit.

Let green rivers of prosperity flow.

And now try blue,

The colour of peace.

Drag wide strokes of sky and perfect fluffy clouds across the ceiling.

Paint the floor like a wide open ocean.

Next go to the yellow.

The colour of joy.

Paint suns and smiling faces.

Draw patterns that feel like delicious laughter.

Try purple.

The colour of magic.

Draw stars,

Constellations,

Galaxies swirling everywhere.

And don't paint neatly and prettily.

Get messy,

Get free and have fun.

Because being perfect is so boring.

So sling the paint across the walls.

Use your fingers,

Smudge it with your palms.

Splash,

Flick,

Wipe,

Draw,

Paint until the white walls explode in technicolour.

Technicolour that is the possibility of your day ahead.

See how you're making this empty grey room come alive.

The walls are now drenched in every colour.

Above you the sky is infinite with magic and potential.

The floor a powerful ocean carrying you into the day ahead with strength and clarity.

This wasn't about making art.

This was about making a different choice.

And you did.

So well done you.

Breathe all of what you just created into yourself.

The reds,

The greens,

The yellow,

The blues,

The gold,

The pink,

The lilac.

Feel all of it soaking into your soul now.

The truth is the day ahead will not be perfect.

It will have good and it will have bad.

Because it's supposed to have both.

Each day is supposed to have every colour.

The blacks and the blues,

The yellows and the pinks.

They all belong.

But if you keep focusing only on the grey.

The overwhelm,

The to-do lists,

The people who have hurt you.

Then that is all you will see.

That is what you will call into your day.

But not this day.

Because today you changed your mind.

Today you painted your own inner world technicolour.

So feel that energy of technicolour inside you now.

Feel the energy of yellow,

The energy of joy moving through your veins.

Feel the greenness of abundance settling into your bones.

Feel the purple magic lighting up every fibre of your being.

You didn't just paint those walls.

You painted yourself.

And when you do open your eyes.

When you step into this day.

That technicolour will come with you.

Because you've just proven to yourself that you can shift your perspective.

You've just proven to yourself that you can change the trajectory of your day simply by changing your mind.

Take a deep breath now.

Feel all of that colour and magic inside you.

And know that today will not own you.

You will own today.

And you will see the magic that's everywhere.

Just waiting for you to notice.

Now come back to your physical body.

To the space you're in.

And when you're ready open your eyes.

And have yourself the most marvellous and magical day.
